Arsenal have received a significant boost in their search for a new winger after Mykhaylo Mudryk admitted that a move to the Gunners would be a "dream".
It's understood that Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu were initially planning to bring in a replacement for Nicolas Pepe, who moved to OGC Nice on a season-long loan. However, injuries to both Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny shifted the club's plans in the last 72 hours of the summer window.
In the week building up to deadline day, Arteta touched on the need for more attacking reinforcements in his squad. "We know as well where we are short, where we have to add more firepower. And if we can do it, we will do it," he said. The Spaniard also confirmed that Pepe's departure was part of plans that had been discussed, suggesting new wingers were actively being sought.
