Arsenal fans may be excited about the latest transfer news involving Shakhtar Donetsk star Mykhaylo Mudryk as talks appear to have taken place in London this week.
According to The Athletic, Mudryk has become one of Arsenal’s top priorities for January, and they also reveal that Shakhtar CEO Sergei Palkin was in London this week to discuss a deal with various clubs.
Surely this is only encouraging for Gunners fans hoping to see their club sign the talented Ukraine international, who has established himself as one of the best young players in Europe this season.
The report suggests Shakhtar believes Mudryk may now be worth up to €100m, although it remains to be seen if anyone will actually pay that much for the 21-year-old.

However, Arsenal urgently need to make changes up front, as Mikel Arteta lacks much depth in that department, which has been exposed by the injury to Gabriel Jesus.
Mudryk could be ideal to give the AFC something a little different in attack and take pressure off the young duo Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli in the second half of the season.
