Expected to be sold by Shakhtar Donetsk in the near future, the transfer of Mykhaylo Mudryk isn’t a matter of when, but more one of where.
Arsenal have been among those often linked with the Ukraine international, and that continues to be the case to this day.
The winger has a lot of talent, as he showed against Real Madrid in the Champions League, which is why the Gunners are interested.
Calciomercato.it in Italy bring the latest on the situation, as they mention Arsenal once again, and the London club are pushing hard.
The website state that ‘there is an important acceleration that could soon define Mudryk’s future’, and that is the fact ‘the Gunners have made an offer to the Ukrainian club and are now awaiting a response’.
This shouldn’t come as a surprise, because Arsenal have been working ‘for months’ to try and get a transfer arranged, ‘and now the negotiations could enter the decisive phase’.
As to how much the Gunners are prepared to spend on the Ukrainian, Calciomercato.it state ‘the indiscretions speak of a figure of around €60m’, which is ‘not too far’ from what Shakhtar want for their star.
The 21-year-old has been in fine form for his club this season’s coring eight goals and assisting another seven in 15 appearances in all competitions.
