TOP STORY: Gunners close in on €100m Mudryk deal

Arsenal and Shakhtar Donetsk are getting closer to reaching an agreement over a deal for Mykhailo Mudryk, reports Foot Mercato.

The 22-year-old winger has been a key target for Mikel Arteta’s side this January, and the latest indicates that positive progress has been made over a move worth in the region of €100 million.

Mudryk has also been linked with Chelsea, but after ESPN sources revealed on Monday that Graham Potter’s side is nearing a loan move for Atletico Madrid star Joao Felix, the Gunners appear to have stepped up their approach for the Ukraine international.

Talks are set to continue throughout the week as the two clubs finalise an agreement over the initial fee, as well as potential bonuses that will be included as part of the deal, with the north London club optimistic that it can get the move over the line.
