Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has hailed the club’s incoming new signing, Oleksandr Zinchenko, describing him as an exceptional footballer.

Zinchenko is on the cusp of joining Arsenal from Manchester City after the two clubs agreed on a fee of £32million deal.

The versatile Ukrainian player has already left Manchester City’s preseason camp and joined up with Arteta’s side.

Speaking about Zinchenko, Arteta told Arsenal’s official website, “Yeah, as you have seen, he is here. There are still a few formalities to get everything completed but we’re really happy to have him.

“I know the player really well, he’s an exceptional footballer and he is someone that is going to bring as well another competitive edge to that dressing room.”
