Arsenal and Man City 'agree deal' for Oleksandr Zinchenko and more transfer rumours

The report claims that personal terms are yet to be agreed but Arsenal are now a step closer to landing their next summer signing. Zinchenko has spent six years at City since joining from Russian side Ufa after coming through the ranks at Shakhtar Donetsk.
