Arsenal are said to be in the mix to sign Shakthar Donetsk winger and Israel international, Manor Solomon, according to a fresh report from Football.London.

Solomon was linked with a move to the Gunners in January but stayed put with Shakthar for now. The tricky winger, 21, has impressed this season, scoring five goals, including a strike agains Real Madrid.

But despite Arsenal not moving forward with a deal in January, it is now claimed that Solomon’s agent, Pini Zahavi, has already initiated talks with Gunners supremo Edu Gaspar.

Further, the report also quotes Solomon from a recent interview where he admitted that ‘there are talks between teams in England’.

Solomon has admitted he dreams of playing in the Premier League. Arsenal, then, could well be in prime position to land the Israeli star, who has 14 caps for his country already.

Arsenal moved to sign Martin Odegaard in January on loan from Real Madrid. But Mikel Arteta is still looking to reshape his squad, meaning a gap could well emerge for Solomon come the summer.

TBR View: Solomon an exciting talent but is he one who Arsenal need?

The Gunners already have some fine talent in wide areas in the likes of Saka, Martinelli, and Pepe, so whether Solomon could break into the team is unknown.

But, he is an exciting player. Quick, tricky, and willing to beat defenders, he’s the sort of player who’d get Gunners fans off their feet.

All roads point to him becoming a Premier League player in the future. The question for now is if it will indeed be Arsenal who follow their interest up and secure a deal for the 21-year-old.
