Ian Wright talked about this after Arsenal failed to sign Mykhailo Mudryk.
Arsenal had a terrific season and are top of the table in the Premier League but they are not doing great in transfer windows. Last year, they lost Vlahovic to Juventus in the winter and now, they lost to Chelsea to sign Mykhailo Mudryk.
Arsenal idol Ian Wright has said it is hard for the North London club to compete financially with Chelsea after losing the deal for Mykhailo Mudryk.
Arsenal made three bids, but they did not meet Shakhtar Donetsk’s demand for his signature, giving Chelsea room to enter the race.
The West London club came in and tabled an offer that bettered what Arsenal wanted to pay and also offered an improved salary to the winger.
Wright understands and says via The Daily Mail:
‘It’s one of those, unfortunately, that we may have missed out on but Arsenal cannot, cannot compete with what Chelsea can offer a player like that,’
Mudryk has proven that players will go where the money is and we should be prepared to lose more targets if we do not splash the cash.
