2. Mykhaylo Mudryk

The 21-year-old winger has emerged as a late target for Arsenal as an alternative to Pedro Neto as the Shakhtar Donetsk star has all the attributes needed to succeed in the Premier League.

He possesses excellent technical skills, has pace to burn, and is as creative as they come. In 11 games last year, he registered six assists and two goals.

Just how much he will cost remains to be seen as Everton recently had a €30m verbal proposal rejected last as per Fabrizio Romano, so the Gunners will likely have to fork out more than the Toffees’ offer.

A new winger is needed as Bukayo Saka is at serious risk of being burnt out as he played every league game last season and has played all four so far. Whether this deal gets done will largely depend on which way Mikel Arteta wants to go.
