Arsenal are willing to offer Oleksandr Zinchenko the opportunity to play in his preferred position in midfield at the Emirates Stadium.
Zinchenko's versatility makes him an attractive proposition for the Gunners who are seeking cover at left-back and central midfield. The Ukraine international has the ability to play in both of these positions - as well as in attack, but played predominantly at left-back during his time at Manchester City despite his preference for a midfield role.
The Gunners are willing to play Zinchenko in midfield according to reports, with his defensive and technical qualities making him an ideal candidate to challenge Granit Xhaka for a starting spot in Mikel Arteta's team. The north Londoners were pursuing a deal for Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez, who offers a similar versatility as Zinchenko, but Manchester United are set to sign the Argentina international after agreeing a £46million deal with the Eredivisie champions.
