Pep Guardiola has been offered some firm transfer advice as Arsenal close in on signing Oleksandr Zinchenko.
Having already signed Gabriel Jesus this summer, the Gunners have turned their attentions to former Manchester City teammate Zinchenko and there is a growing expectation that a deal will now happen for the Ukraine international. Zinchenko, 25, joined City in 2017 and has played 127 games for the club.
However, with Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo operating as first-choice full-backs last season, the former PSV man has often had to play second fiddle in more important matches. It has been suggested that has left him 'frustrated' as speculation over his future at the Etihad Stadium continues to mount.

Speaking on radio station talkSPORT, former City player Trevor Sinclair said: "It's a tough one and I like Zinchenko. I think he's a great servant to the club and he's shown courage with what's being going on in Ukraine, over there. He can play left-back and left-side in central midfield and he seems to be a good guy to have around.
Sinclair added: "It [interest] doesn't surprise me. Mikel Arteta has worked with him when he was at City and knows what great quality he has got. He knows what a great kid he is as well. I can also see the player a little bit frustrated. He's been at City for a long time and he does play, at times, but he doesn't play the A games."
