West Ham United transfer target Oleksandr Zinchenko now seems poised to join Arsenal. That’s according to Fabrizio Romano, who had the following to say on Twitter: “Arsenal and Manchester City have reached an agreement for Zinchenko in the morning. £30m fee.
No doubt it’s done between clubs. Negotiations ongoing on player side for personal terms and salary details, then it will be completed”.
West Ham had shown reported interest in the Ukrainian as far back as June. Although only a tenuous interest, Zinchenko would’ve been a fine addition to West Ham’s squad.
Admittedly, he would have been for most Premier League clubs. With incredible versatility, an eye for a pass and multiple years being coached by Pep Guardiola, the Ukrainian international offered it all for just £30m.
