Arsenal have confirmed the signing of Oleksandr Zinchenko from Manchester City. The 25-year-old becomes the Gunners' fifth signing of the summer, following the arrival of Gabriel Jesus, Fabio Vieira, Matt Turner and Marquinhos.
Mikel Arteta made the Ukrainian his priority, with the Arsenal manager and Zinchenko linked by Arteta's time at Man City, where the Spaniard was Assistant Manager for three-and-a-half years. Arsenal confirmed on Friday that Zinchenko has joined the Gunners on a long-term deal.
"I’m ready for another challenge. I’m not here just to waste my time and the time of Arsenal because the club is always in front of everyone. I am here to achieve big things and I hope we can win some titles, and I hope we are going to fight for every title in which we are going to be involved," Zinchenko said after his signing was confirmed.
