What’s next?
According to CBS Sports’ Ben Jacobs, Arsenal’s pursuit of Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhailo Mudryk will continue regardless of resistance from Chelsea. The Gunners want to improve on their current place in the Premier League table by making additions to their roster during the next January transfer window.
With Mikel Arteta’s team eight points ahead of second-place Manchester City, who play their game in hand tonight against Chelsea, Arsenal has never had a better opportunity to win the championship and become a powerhouse in English football once again.
The club has submitted an offer of “around €70m” for Mudryk, with Shakhtar asking for €100m, as they try to bolster their front line for the stretch run. The Blues have made two additions in the first five days of the transfer window, indicating their interest. But Jacobs claims that Mudryk prefers to join Arsenal over Graham Potter’s squad.
In a tweet, Jacobs said, “Arsenal have further direct negotiations arranged with Shakhtar on Mykhaylo Mudryk. Also, Shakhtar’s officials are visiting Stamford Bridge to speak with Chelsea. To put it simply, Mudryk is eager to join Arsenal.”
