ARSENAL TRANSFERS NEWS: EDU NOW 'IN TALKS' OVER SIGNING £87M STAR AT THE EMIRATES.



Arsenal is ‘now in talks’ with both Shakhtar Donetsk and Mykhaylo Mudryk’s representatives, CBS reporter Ben Jacobs has informed.



The Gunners’ pursuit of Mudryk has been one of football’s most open secrets in recent months and it is becoming very apparent that he is firmly at the top of Mikel Arteta’s wish list.

Reliable journalist Fabrizio Romano has previously disclosed to GMS that Mudryk is Arsenal’s ‘main priority’ as they look to bring in another winger in January.



The Ukraine international has also admitted in an interview with Jacobs that he ‘couldn’t say no’ to the north London outfit if they tried to prise him away from Shakhtar.

Dario Srna, Shakhtar’s director of football, has stated that Mudryk is valued at €100 million (£87.4m), although The Athletic believe a lower fee would in fact be deemed acceptable.
