Arsenal could postpone their plans to sign Shakhtar Donetsk star Mykhaylo Mudryk following the injury to the Gunners frontman Gabriel Jesus. The summer arrival of Jesus from Manchester City has been a significant boost to Arsenal and his injury, which it's likely to keep him out until February, could prompt Mikel Arteta to change his January transfer window plans.
football.london understands that a long-term interest in Mudryk remains, and the Ukrainian remains the centre of discussion for an attacking signing this winter, however that may no longer be the case with Edu and Arteta likely assessing potential options in the front line after the injury suffered at the World Cup by Jesus.
With Mudryk predominantly a winger, and there now being a significant lack of depth in the striker role, Arsenal may need to prioritise signing another traditional centre forward with Jesus set to miss a significant amount of games.
