Arsenal supporters have poked fun at Chelsea fans on social media, claiming that Bukayo Saka has outshined Mykhailo Mudryk in England's clash with Ukraine. The Gunners star provided the assist for Harry Kane to put the Three Lions ahead, before doubling his country's lead with a fantastic effort from range just minutes later.
Mudryk was heavily linked with a move to the north London outfit in the January transfer window, only for the Blues to swoop in and hijack the deal. football.london understands that talks between Arsenal and Shakhtar Donetsk were thought to have initially progressed well.
The Gunners remained in contact with the Ukrainian side and there was even confidence that they were going to secure the winger's signature. But, then, Chelsea hijacked the deal at the 11th hour and matched Arsenal's bid, which was later revealed to be more-favourably structured for the Ukrainian side.
