Arsenal are currently in talks over bringing Mykhaylo Mudryk to the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners have been heavily linked with the Shakhtar Donetsk star in recent months.

Speculation between Arsenal and Mudryk intensified ahead of the January transfer window.

Now, with the market open, things are in full swing.

Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth issued a fresh update on the Arsenal / Mudryk talks on Tuesday afternoon.

He cited “sources close to the deal” as saying there’s a growing feelings Arsenal and Shakhtar will “find a solution”.

The two clubs are still in talks over a fee and structure for the deal, added Sheth.

He also reported that personal terms are “not expected to be a problem” and that talks over a loan deal for Joao Felix are also ongoing.

It’s great to see Arsenal hit the ground running in pursuit of Mudryk, one of the breakthrough stars of European football this season.

Arsenal fans won’t be unfamiliar with long, drawn-out transfer sagas. There have been plenty over the years.

But unlike many of those that seem to revolve around reports, this one involves the player and club figures making public admissions.

With this in mind, it really looks as though Arsenal have a great chance of landing Mudryk.

On top of that, the Gunners are also trying hard to land Felix, a world-class talent whose career has stalled at Atletico Madrid.

It looks as though Arsenal really mean business in the January window, with the Premier League title very much at stake.
