Manchester United now want to sign ‘unstoppable’ player who’s already said ‘yes’ to Arsenal move
According to The Sun, Manchester United have now joined Arsenal in keeping tabs on Shakhtar Donetsk star Mykhaylo Mudryk.
The young Ukrainian has been a star this season. He has not only impressed in the Ukrainian top flight but also in the Champions League, where his performances have been brilliant.
Manchester United now want to sign Arsenal target Mykhaylo Mudryk
Arsenal have been linked with a move to sign Mudryk for a while now.
It was claimed in the summer that he is one of the names on Mikel Arteta and Edu’s wish list, and he has constantly been rumoured to be a target for Arsenal since.
The Gunners were always going to face serious competition to sign Mudryk. His performances have alerted a number of clubs across Europe, including Manchester United.
The report claims that the Red Devils have been keeping an eye on Mudryk for a while now, with scouts regularly watching him perform for Shakhtar.
It has also been revealed that Erik Ten Hag is really keen on Mudryk. He has reportedly wanted the talented Ukrainian since his days as the manager of Ajax.
The January transfer window is not too far away and it will be interesting to see what will happen with Mudryk then. The report, however, claims Manchester United are unlikely to bid for him in the winter window.
Mudryk has said ‘yes’ to Arsenal move
Just a week after the summer transfer window shut – after Mudryk’s reported move to Arsenal failed to materialise – the winger, branded as ‘unstoppable’, addressed all the rumours linking him with a move to the Emirates.
He claimed that Arsenal are a good team and that if Arteta comes knocking on his door, ‘he can’t say no’.
He told Ben Jacobs of CBS Sports: “Yes, I think every guy dreams about playing in the Premier League. Arsenal is a very good team, (Arteta is a) very good coach. I like the way they play.
“Yes, from my side, I can’t say no, but a transfer is not only my decision.”
