Every day there is another report saying that the Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Mykhalo Mudryk is keen to come to Arsenal, and even the Athletic has reported that Arsenal are very strong candidates, but they also said that the Ukranian giants are asking for an incredible 100million for their star player.
But today Mudryk’s agent, Oleksiy Alyokhin says that these outlandish prices are just media speculation with no basis in fact, and if anyone should know, he should!
“As far as I know, Shakhtar is not officially conducting any negotiations,” Alyokhin said. “And all these sky-high numbers that appear on the Internet are someone’s wild imagination or just speculation.”
“It can be seen with the naked eye that he outgrew the championship of Ukraine a long time ago and is ready to perform at a more serious level,”
“He needs to progress.
“And in my opinion, now is the best time for it. I think everyone will benefit from this. And Shakhtar, the national team of Ukraine, and the player himself.
“But again, Mudryk has a long-term contract with Shakhtar, he is fully focused on the remaining championship games. And whether Mudryk will go or not – I am not ready to answer. Everything will depend on the Shakhtar board.”
We all know that the agent is obviously pushing for a big pay day for himself, as well as Mudryk, but surely he also knows that it is extremly unlikely that Arsenal will pay such an extornionate price for the youngster.
And if Mudryk really fancies joining his Ukranian captain Zinchenko at Arsenal, he may have some say in the matter himself.
I really hope that Arteta can make this happen. All the signs are looking to be in our favour…

Exactly my thoughts which I shared on the last article regarding Mudryk
I see the guy is ready to push for a move abroad and to arsenal to be precise. Well that makes for a good treat because they will give in at some point and we will have our boy. It will be a fair amount but not those ridiculous millions that are being quoted. Hoping all goes well and we have the guy who is so willing to join arsenal and be part of the project.
50m is a fair amount, No?
Keep pushing Mudryk we really need you at Arsenal
Would really love to see the lad in our red and white for sure.
However, rather we don’t exclusively focus on him alone just in case his price ends up being unreasonable as suggested in this article. Very feasible options to him to be kept open so that we aren’t held at ransom in the end or we end up with egg on our face with negotiations.
If arsenai sign mudryk will bring good competition btn martineli becose when injury come will no problem
dude is young and a terrific player, but with that amount of money I will prefer Nkunku of RB Leizbig by a mile
I love to see modryk, Danilo, Gapko not forgetting Teliesman of Liecester city
