Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur have received a boost in their pursuit of Juventus star Dejan Kulusevski, with Il Bianconero reporting that the Old Lady are now open to loaning the winger out.

Kulusevski could be on the move in one of the coming windows. The Sweden international has only made two starts in Serie A this season, with a further nine appearances coming from the bench.

Despite his lack of game-time, he is attracting attention. It was recently reported that Fabio Paratici was eyeing a reunion with the winger at Tottenham.

And Spurs have now been joined in the running by Arsenal. It was claimed last week that the Gunners were keen, with Juve open to selling for £30 million.

Given his season so far, paying such a fee for Kulusevski may be deemed by many to be a gamble. And it would appear that Juventus are aware that their stance may need to change.

Il Bianconero is reporting that the Serie A giants have now decided that they would be open to loaning the 21-year-old out.

It is noted that Juve are wary of losing Kulusevski permanently given his potential.

Loan for Kulusevski could be ideal for Arsenal or Tottenham in January

Of course, loan moves are not ideal. If Kulusevski does well out on loan, Juventus may decide that he is going nowhere.

But Arsenal have been excellent of late. And big things are now expected of Tottenham following the appointment of Antonio Conte.

So the January window could be a big one for both sides. And with that, both should be open to the idea of taking Kulusevski on loan if they are reluctant to sign him permanently.
