Arsenal could look to complete a deal for AC Milan winger Christian Pulisic in the coming months, according to a report from Italy - with the Italian thought to be 'getting itchy feet' at the San Siro as a result of the mass exodus that is currently underway at the Rossoneri.
Arsenal have already seen title rivals Liverpool and Manchester City get to work in the transfer window, and they need to start bringing players in before long if they are to challenge for the title yet again - and Pulisic could be the answer for the Gunners to finally land major silverware.

The report by Alessandro Schiavone states that Pulisic is getting itchy feet at AC Milan, with a 'mass exodus' at the San Siro taking place - and the former Chelsea man is 'keen' to return to the Premier League.

The winger has already instructed his agent to find him a new club away from Milan, after spending just two years in the Lombardian city - and his preference is thought to be Arsenal.
The Gunners' need for a new winger is no secret. Backup is needed for Bukayo Saka on the right-hand side, given loanee Raheem Sterling largely flopped throughout his loan spell - and with competition also being needed for Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard on the left, he could be a superb option on the flanks.
Pulisic joined Chelsea in 2019, and spent four years at Stamford Bridge before packing his bags for Italy - with his spell in west London garnering 26 goals in 145 games, as well as the Champions League trophy in 2021.
The American - dubbed 'one of the best wingers in the world' by Tyler Adams - also has 22 goal contributions in 63 Champions League games, and with Arsenal qualifying for the competition for the fourth year running, his experience in the tournament could come in extremely useful for the club.
Mikel Arteta is already set to sign Martin Zubimendi from former club Real Sociedad, and with director Andrea Berta set to spend £300million this summer, the Pennsylvania-born star could come into his reckoning. At the age of 26, Pulisic could be a long-term option for Arteta and, having experienced success with an English side before, it would be a worthwhile deal.
