Talks continue': Fabrizio Romano shares update on Arsenal's pursuit Mykhalo Mudryk
In his column for Caught Offside, tier-one journalist Fabrizio Romano wrote: "Arsenal are confident [about signing Mykhalo Mudryk], and [Mikel] Arteta too.
"But reaching an agreement with Shakhtar Donetsk is crucial. They were so strong in negotiations also in August when they turned down €30m from Everton when it sounded like a great bid.
"No deadlines have been mentioned in the negotiations, as of now; talks continue."
Along with Arsenal, Chelsea are also in the race for the Ukrainian striker but there is no clarity on his future just yet.
The Gunners desperately need a new forward and have made way too many efforts in signing Mudryk. Hopefully, they do enough to ensure the deal is completed.
