Gary Neville and Paul Merson agree on Arsenal transfer verdict amid Mykhaylo Mudryk £62m offer

Arsenal look set to invest in new signings during the January transfer window as they prioritise a move for Shakhtar Donetsk star Mykhaylo Mudryk. The Gunners spent over £100million for the second successive summer ahead of the 2022/23 campaign and are hoping to reinforce Mikel Arteta's squad once again.

Gabriel Jesus' injury during the World Cup with Brazil has resulted in Arsenal pursuing a deal for Mudryk despite Eddie Nketiah's impressive form since coming into the side. The north London outfit have won back-to-back games against West Ham and Brighton to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table to seven points.

Arteta will be hoping that sporting director Edu Gaspar can seal a deal for the Ukrainian winger as they enter a busy period of fixtures in the hope of maintaining their title charge. Jesus is set to return in February with the Gunners also looking to strengthen in central midfield and centre-back.
