Arsenal are closing in on capturing the services of Oleksandr Zinchenko after weeks of being linked with a move for the Manchester City full-back.
The defender is thought to be seeking consistent game time after playing second fiddle to Joao Cancelo since his arrival from Juventus. That’s not to say the 25-year-old hasn’t been a valued member of the squad, though.
The Ukraine captain was handed 28 outings last term and served up five assists. As well as an offensive talent, Zinchenko has also been an assured figure at the back, but there is now a growing expectation that the move will happen.
