It’s been a transfer story that has rumbled on in the background for months, but Mykhaylo Mudryk could finally get his wish and become an Arsenal player in January.
The Gunners are said to have first opened dialogue with the player’s camp in the summer, with Mikel Arteta keen on replacing Nicolas Pepe, who joined OGC Nice on loan. However, injuries to Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny at the time soon meant focus turned elsewhere.
Since then, Mudryk has continued to show why he is one of the most exciting and highly-rated youngsters in the game, stealing the show on the Champions League stage and proving to be Shakhtar Donetsk’s star man.
