# Arsenal target approved for January loan move

![Rugani.jpg](https://cdn.footballtransfertavern.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Rugani-500x343.jpg)Arsenal fans in the Transfer Tavern are reacting to news which suggests their January plans are set to be strengthened, with a reported target being made available on the market.

[*TalkSport* claim Arsenal target Daniele Rugani is being made available for loan by Juventus in January](https://talksport.com/football/arsenal-transfer-report-juventus-ready-sanction-loan-move-gunners-target-daniele-rugani), which may help the Gunners in their quest to secure the signature of the Italian U21 international.

However, [Fiorentina and Napoli are also keen](https://talksport.com/football/arsenal-transfer-report-juventus-ready-sanction-loan-move-gunners-target-daniele-rugani); which could prove problematic as Juventus may see it beneficial to loan the young defender to a fellow Italian side in order for the player to continue his development.

Rugani starred previously with two seasons on-loan at Empoli, securing an impressive 78 Serie A appearances. Despite the experience, Rugani has found it difficult in Turin after being continuously overlooked by Massimiliano Allegri.

Report suggest [Rugani could cost as much as £15m](https://talksport.com/football/arsenal-transfer-report-juventus-ready-sanction-loan-move-gunners-target-daniele-rugani) if Juventus were to approve a permanent sale, which would give them a £12m profit on the fee they paid Empoli for the player’s services back in 2013.
