Adding to the uncertainty, Mikel Arteta’s pursuit of Riccardo Calafiori, a left-sided defender who impressed for Italy at the Euros, signifies Arsenal’s desire for reinforcements in that position.
The Calafiori deal, however, faces hurdles due to a dispute over a sell-on clause with his former club. This delay may lead the club to explore alternative options.
If Arsenal signs Calafiori, he and Jurrien Timber would most certainly compete for the left-back position, throwing doubt on Zinchenko and Jakub Kiwior’s futures.
Jakub Kiwior has been linked with a move to AC Milan, but it remains to be seen whether Zinchenko will move on too, especially as there appears to be a lack of interest in him.
