Inter Milan are reportedly preparing a fresh January transfer bid for Oleksandr Zinchenko, the Ukrainian defender who has found himself out of favor at Arsenal. Zinchenko, who joined Arsenal from Manchester City in 2022, initially made a significant impact but has struggled to regain his form following an injury. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is reportedly open to the idea of allowing Zinchenko to leave, as the club looks to free up funds for new signings.
According to SunSport, the Serie A side are keen to secure the versatile left-back, who could fit seamlessly into their system. In a strategic move, Arteta is targeting Theo Hernandez, as a potential replacement. Hernandez’s contract expires in 2026, and negotiations for a new deal have stalled, making him an attractive option for Arsenal.
