Mykhaylo Mudryk makes huge Arsenal transfer admission as Edu told 'next Kylian Mbappe' decision

Mykhaylo Mudryk has admitted he "can't say no" to a potential move to Arsenal amid reported transfer interest from the Gunners in the Ukrainian winger. The 21-year-old has been linked with a move to the Emirates alongside the likes of Everton and Juventus from Shakhtar Donetsk.

Mudryk has impressed at a young age, with his latest cameo being a goal in the Champions League in a 4-1 thrashing of RB Leipzig in midweek. It's led to plenty of comparisons between him and some of Europe's top talent, with Shakhtar reportedly holding out for over £50million to let him leave.

Club director and former Croatian footballer Darijo Srna compared the 21-year-old to some huge talent, claiming via HITC: "For me, Mudryk is the best player in Europe in this position after [Kylian] Mbappe and Vinicius Junior. After Mbappe and Vinicius, I don’t see a third player other than Mudryk in this position in Europe. Mudryk has crazy potential.”

Amid such interest, it appears as though the youngster is very open to a move to Arsenal, who would need more depth in their wide areas. Speaking to CBS Sports, he said: "I think every guy dreams about the Premier League. It's hard to say [who his preferred move is] but Arsenal is a very good team, very good coach, I like the way they play."

When asked if he would make a move to the Emirates he said: "From my side, I can't say no [to Arsenal]. But the transfer is not only my decision."

While the window only recently closed, it won't be long until it is open in January once again for clubs to bolster. That could allow the Gunners to finally make their move for Mudryk.
