The number of players that Chelsea have signed whose profiles flittered away with their appearance and goal numbers is getting to an absurd level. From an Arsenal perspective, seeing Mykhailo Mudryk’s move fade away like it has is both a relief, considering how much the Gunners were willing to offer last January, and a frustration because of the obvious quality he had.
Further names like Marc Cucurella, Saul Niguez, Timo Werner and Tiemoue Bakayoko come to mind. Others have thankfully seen their careers revived elsewhere such as Juan Cuadrado, Mohamed Salah, Kevin De Bruyne and Daniel Sturridge.
Now Arsenal are interested in signing Kai Havertz from Chelsea, football.london understands. With the Gunners keen to bolster their forward options.
