Arsenal will not rush any January transfer moves despite Reiss Nelson's injury. The Gunners had been in the market for a forward already next month after missing out on signing Raphinha from Leeds in the summer.
It has been suggested that the likely focus of their attentions will be Mykhaylo Mudryk. Negotiations with Shakhtar Donetsk look set to be difficult after the Ukrainian side's director of football Darijo Srna claimed that they would be looking to recoup at least £100million for the winger.
Next month already promises to be a tricky window to find a good deal as clubs look to navigate the unprecedented territory of returning from a mid-season World Cup. It will be crucial in particular for Arsenal who are looking to build on their unexpected push for a Premier League title. That could now have been made even more difficult by an injury to Nelson.
