Arsenal transfer target Mykhaylo Mudryk has publicly stated his desire to play in the Premier League once again in a fresh interview. The Shakhtar Donetsk winger was linked with the Gunners, along with the likes of Liverpool and Everton, over the course of the summer.
Affectionately dubbed the "Ukrainian Neymar", Mudryk was denied a move as his club placed a price tag worth over £50million during the window. That value could continue to rise with his impressive performances, having already made a mark in the Champions League so far.
Amid links to a Premier League move, the 21-year-old told the Times: "Yes, yes, it is possible. The Premier League is the best league in the world and everyone wants to play in this league.”

The youngster has become a well-known prospect in England, but he isn't aware of that and wants to continue progressing: "No! I appreciate it [the praise], but I must improve a lot of moments because I think I can play better. I’m only at maximum 20 per cent of my potential.”
It's a scary warning for many, considering what he is already beginning to achieve with plenty more to come. However, it remains to be seen if that is with Arsenal, who he recently revealed as a side he wouldn't be able to turn down.
Speaking to CBS Sports, he said: "My dream is to play in Premier League, of course. Arsenal is a very good team, very good manager - so from my side, I can’t say no to Arsenal!"
With Mikel Arteta light for numbers in some forward areas, a move for Mudryk would make sense and could be revisited when the window reopens in January. With plenty of promise but a hefty price tag, it seems set up for a team to take a gamble on the youngster in the coming months.
