Arsenal will face competition from Manchester United and Liverpool in any deal to sign Daniele Rugani from Juventus.
According to Calciomercato, the Premier League duo and Serie A side Milan have all joined the race to sign the player in the new year.
Rugani looks poised to leave Juventus during the January window, having not yet played a single game for the Old Lady this season.

The links to Liverpool will come as a surprise to many. Their recent injury to Joel Matip does leave them a little shorter at the back, but they’re by no means in a position where they need to go out and panic in January.
For Rugani, a move to Manchester United may make more sense as they continue to search for the perfect partner for Harry Maguire.
When compared to Arsenal, game time would be more likely at Old Trafford, with the Gunners already well-stocked in central defenders.
For the sake of his long-term career, it may just work out better for Rugani to pursue a move to Manchester United instead, where an opening seems far more feasible based on the current options they have at the back.
