Mikel Arteta targets Facundo Torres and Mykhaylo Mudryk

PA Wire

Arsenal are in a title race in the Premier League and Mikel Arteta is lining up a double swoop in January to maintain momentum following the World Cup.

The Gunners will only move for players of “another level”, according to the Spaniard, with two players emerging as key targets.

The Mail highlight 22-year-old Orlando City winger Facundo Torres and 21-year-old Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk.

The Express cites Italian publication Il Giorno with reports Tottenham have reached an agreement with Atalanta for 29-year-old midfielder Ruslan Malinovskyi and could pay as much as £13million for him in January.

West Ham have joined the pack monitoring 22-year-old winger Tete, who is on loan at Lyon from Shakhtar Donetsk, according to The Sun. They’re accompanied by Southampton, Leicester and Brentford in interest for the player.

And Wolves hope to appoint former Sevilla manager Julen Lopetegui as their new boss on November 13, according to the Mail. It is the day after they play Arsenal and in time for the break before the World Cup.
