Arsenal’s summer transfer window of incomings slowed down after losing out on Raphinha to Barcelona. The Gunners seemed to have the edge on signing the Brazilian until Chelsea attempted to hijack a potential deal, but the winger ultimately decided to join Barcelona. If the Gunners had offered an extra amount of money, then they would have put themselves in a stronger stance to seal an early deal.
The same situation must not be repeated with Mykhaylo Mudryk from Shakhtar Donetsk. The winger has had a phenomenal start to the season by scoring three goals and also assisting on two occasions in the Champions League group stage, with his team narrowly missing out on qualification from their group behind Real Madrid and RB Leipzig
It is due to his successful exploits that clubs other than Arsenal have began to register interest in the winger. Edu has been warned to move fast to avoid the repeat of failure to sign Raphinha in the summer.
