Newcastle are set to be a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming transfer windows after the change of ownership midway through last season. It is due to this that Arsenal could be one of the clubs that fall victim of the financial dominance of the Magpies.
According to Ben Jacobs from CBS Sports, Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk is hoping for a January move. One of the clubs reportedly interested in his services is Newcastle.
This comes after Ukrainian news outlet football24tv reported that Arsenal held talks with Mudryk’s agents and were interested in signing the player in the summer. The report went on to say that Shakhtar Donetsk are asking for €35million (£30million), but a deal never managed to materialise.
