Arsenal has been rumoured to be interested in Mykhaylo Mudryk, a winger for Shakhtar Donetsk who is available for only £40 million
The Daily Mirror says that Arsenal is the team most likely to sign Mykhaylo Mudryk. And the winger, who is 21 years old, will cost about £40 million.
This season, Mudryk has been great for Shakhtar Donetsk. He has also done well in the Champions League. He is a good enough player that he should play for a big club. Arsenal would be a great next step in his career.
At the moment, the Gunners are at the top of the Premier League table and trying to win the title. They could use more quality and depth in January. Mudryk has become a good option for Arsenal to go after.
The reported price of £40 million might seem like a lot. But Mudryk is good enough to make it worth it in the coming seasons. The player reportedly wants to play with fellow Ukrainian Oleksandr Zinchenko next season. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal is willing to pay the asking price for him.
The 21-year-old will give Arsenal’s attack more speed, style, and goals. This season, he has helped Shakhtar Donetsk score ten goals and set up eight others in all games.
Will Mykhaylo Mudryk move to the Emirates stadium?
This season, Mikel Arteta has had to rely on Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, and both have played very well so far. But the two players could use a break and a change of roles. With Mudryk on the team, Arsenal’s manager will be able to switch out his attackers and keep them fresh as the season winds down.
In recent months, the player has been linked to Newcastle United, but he would rather go to Arsenal. The Gunners brought in a lot of new players during the summer transfer window. They are likely to have the money to do the same in January.
Other than Mudryk, they could also use a good central midfielder. The north Londoners have been linked to Youri Tielemans, a midfielder for Leicester City who could be cheap to sign because his contract is about to end. At the end of the season, the Belgian will be a free agent.
The Daily Mail says that in January, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Newcastle United will all try to sign Christian Pulisic. The USMNT player is unhappy at Chelsea. It’s not clear what will happen to him after the World Cup. It’s still not clear if Chelsea will sell him to one of their rivals.
Christian Pulisic has not had the best of times with either his current manager Graham Potter or his former manager Thomas Tuchel, who was in charge of Chelsea. The German has always liked the USMNT attacker as an impact sub, but Potter hasn’t completely trusted him.
Pulisic has been great for the USMNT at the World Cup. Against England in Qatar, he won the MOTM award. His performances have caught the attention of possible suitors before the January transfer window. He could make a complicated move within the Premier League.
