Mudryk looks like one of the best young talents after impressing in his native Ukraine and in the Champions League this season, and Mikel Arteta would do well to add him to his list of attacking options.

Mudryk is still only 22 years old and seems to have a lot of potential, so it might be worth spending big on him now, as his value will surely continue to rise.
