Arsenal 'planning Andrija Zivkovic move'

Arsenal will reportedly move for Benfica winger Andrija Zivkovic in this summer's transfer window.

The 21-year-old, who has reportedly been scouted by the Gunners on a number of occasions this year, has scored three times and registered six assists for his Portuguese club during the 2017-18 campaign.

Zivkovic has a contract with Benfica until the summer of 2021, while it is understood that his release clause currently stands in the region of £53m.

According to Sport Witness, Arsenal will launch a bid when the transfer window opens for business next month, although Zivkovic's representatives are currently unsure whether the Gunners are prepared to meet the Serbian's buy-out figure.

Zivkovic, who became the youngest ever player to make a senior appearance for Serbia at the age of 17, joined Benfica from Partizan in the summer of 2016.
