Transfer news: Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham all chasing Patrik Schick – but Borussia Dortmund ready to make first move

Borussia Dortmund are ready to trigger the £21m release clause of Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham target Patrik Schick.

All three Premier League clubs have been monitoring the Czech striker during his first season in Italy, where he has scored 11 goals in 31 appearances, of which just 13 have been started.

But Juventus have set their sights on signing the 21-year-old this summer and reports in Italy have claimed that a move to the Serie A champions is almost a foregone conclusion for the youngster.

Now, however, Sky Sport Italia has claimed that Dortmund are ready to step up their pursuit of the Prague-born ace by making an offer.

Dortmund know they may lose star striker Pierre Emerick Aubameyang this summer, with PSG circling, and they will need to reinforce their forward line.

Should the German giants make their £21m offer, it will then be down to Schick to decide whether to stick or twist with more interest expected this summer.
