Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk has made it clear that he wants to join Arsenal over Chelsea this month.
The Gunners are currently aiming to strengthen their wide attacking options and they have identified Mudryk as the priority.
Mudryk also wants to link up with the Gunners, but there is currently a stumbling block due to Shakhtar's hefty price tag.
The Gunners are yet to meet the £88m valuation for the 21-year-old and amidst this, there are claims that Chelsea could hijack the deal.
According to 90min, Mudryk is now aware of the fresh interest from the Blues, but he is quite clear that he wants to join the Gunners.
Mudryk has been flirting over a move to the north London side in recent weeks by posting pictures of him watching the club in action.
He is said to be determined to join the club but ultimately, a transfer could depend on whether they can seal a deal with Shakhtar.
