Borussia Dortmund are getting ready to make a move for Arsenal defender Oleksandr Zinchenko, who is expected to leave north London this month.
Zinchenko is expected to leave the Gunners this month and Dortmund have placed him at the top of their shortlist, according to the Daily Telegraph. The Bundesliga giants are keen to sign a left-back this month and had been interested in Chelsea's Renato Veiga, but he is instead set to move to Juventus on loan.
Zinchenko has fallen behind Myles Lewis-Skelly in the pecking order and has only started twice in the Premier League. But Lewis-Skelly's been injured, so Arsenal might wait to see the results of a scan before they sign off on Zinchenko's exit.
Arsenal has another candidate for this position: Tierney. However, Tierney has not received many opportunities since his return from injury, and there have been rumors about him and Celtic, so his stay is still uncertain.Of course, we will not forget Takehiro Tomiyasu, but there is still some time before he returns. Frequent injuries also make people question whether the Japanese star's strength has declined.
The good news is that Arteta also has Riccardo Calafiori as an option, so Zinchenko is still expected to move this month. The Gunners paid £30 million ($37m) to sign him from Manchester City, but it's unlikely they'll get that much back. Zinchenko's contract runs out in 2026.
Arsenal are playing Wolves on Saturday in the Premier League and then they've got Girona in the Champions League.The left-back candidate at that time should still be between Timber and Calafiori, with Tierney and Zinchenko possibly on the bench.
