Lichtsteiner - JuventusArsenal have joined the list of suitors interested in signing Juventus wing-back Stephan Lichtsteiner.

The 30 year old Swiss international has been in good form again this season, but has a contract that runs out at the conclusion of this campaign.

Sky Sport Italia report that Juventus are confident of securing an extension for Lichtsteiner, but the defender may opt to test his value on the open market in the new year.

Arsenal are believed to be at the front of the queue for the defender, and have apparently already made their interest known to his representatives. Meanwhile Chelsea are also said to be interested.

It is thought that the player is demanding €3 million a season to stay at Juventus, but the Bianconeri are only willing to offer an extension of his current €2m per year salary.
