Arsenal face a race against the clock to have Mykhaylo Mudryk, let alone any potential new signings, available for selection against Newcastle United on Tuesday night.
The Gunners' plans over the next 30 days, aside from keeping their Premier League title challenge on track and advancing in the FA Cup, are sure to involve the Shakhtar Donetsk winger as he remains the club's priority signing despite seeing a bid believed to be in the region of £55m including add-ons rejected earlier in the week.
Now, whilst the January transfer window closes at the end of the month, there's another upcoming deadline that Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and sporting director Edu are surely keeping in mind as it could have a major impact should they make a signing in the next few hours.
