The race for Shakhtar Donetsk’s Mykhailo Mudryk is heating up between Arsenal and Chelsea as the winger gives a hint about his next move through his social media activity.
Arsenal have been long-term admirers of the Ukrainian whilst Chelsea have got involved only recently in trying to lure the winger to Stamford Bridge.
According to the Daily Mail, negotiations are currently ongoing between Shakhtar and both London clubs over a January transfer and it was reported by Sky Sports on Thursday that officials from the Ukrainian club would be in attendance for Chelsea’s match with Man City ahead of talks.
However, the 22-year-old might have given a hint about his next club by liking an Instagram post with him in an Arsenal themed cape.

Mudryk has often shown his intention to join the Gunners on social media by letting his followers know that he is watching their matches whenever the London club are in action.
Arsenal had their latest bid rejected for the winger, which was said to be around £62m, but they will not give up as the 22-year-old is Mikel Arteta’s primary target for January according to the Mail’s report.
There will likely be more developments in the race for Mudryk over the coming days as both London clubs try to sign one of Europe’s most exciting talents.
I am feeling pain for mudryk. please go and get him Arsenal
What the new Chelsea owner is trying to do is unacceptable jumping to disrupt an ongoing negotiation they are destroying football after they will begin to look for who destroyed football this type of things the Chelsea owner is doing now is against any trade by nature after all Isak was sorted by Arsenal in the past but now he is a Newcastle player but not the way the Chelsea owner are doing it that will make him unpopular remember there was a time Abrahamovic bought Shevshenco for Chelsea but it didn’t work between him and the coach so he can go ahead
That 100% is true brother, they don’t know how to scout on their own, that’s why their club have no direction because they just buy. Money seems to make them opt to interrupt other club’s transfers, but that wont make their team better at all, they tried the same on Jesus, they tried to convince him last minute, good thing Jesus wanted Arsenal. I hate this Chelsea, always sniffing around Arsenal’s transfers, they will always be our rival.
Can Arsenal just cough out the said amount and sign this guy already? I’d so sadened and ashamed of Arsenal if they let this guy slip off their finger
I feel ashamed for Chelsea attitude, why do they always like to snatch Arsenal’s transfer targets. It’s as if they wait until Arsenal identify a player before they make move, thinking that they have the money, but money doesn’t buy you love; this player have always express their preference but Chelsea have useless money to spend. Juan Mata, Eden Hazard, Kante, Harvertz, even Pulisic… It’s a shame Jesus reject them for Arsenal, Rafinha reject them for Barca. I’m sure Mudryk will also reject Chelsea for Arsenal, I bet you. SHAMLESS Chelsea!
Chelsea’s new transfer policy is to see which players the top six are going for and then outbid them. Joke of a football club
