Ukrainian Arsenal defender Alexander Zinchenko will most likely leave the London club and move to Borussia Dortmund, writes Telegraph. The 28-year-old captain of the Ukrainian national team, who moved to the capital club from Manchester City for? 30 million in 2022, can change team before the January transfer window closes.

Dortmund are actively looking for a new left-back and have put Zinchenko top of their list after they failed to reach an agreement with Chelsea over the transfer of Renato Veiga.

Chelsea agreed to send Weiga to rent to Juventus until the end of the season, although he initially insisted on its full -fledged sale. Now the Dortmunds who previously made an offer on the Portuguese are forced to look for other options. Another candidate is considered to be Chelwell from Chelsea, but the leader of our national team is considered as a priority goal.

Despite starting for Arsenal in their Champions League match against Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday, Zinchenko has lost his place in Mikel Arteta's pecking order to youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly.

However, Lewis-Skelly's injury against Aston Villa may force Arsenal to wait for the results of a medical examination before releasing Zinchenko. At the same time, Riccardo Calafiori, who was on the Dortmund bench, has recovered from injury, making a sale of Zinchenko more likely.

Since the transition to Arsenal, Zinchenko spent 81 matches for the club in all tournaments, scoring 2 goals and making 4 assistants.

Meanwhile, Borussia this week fired the head coach Nuri Shakhin and, as reported, can appoint a former mentor "

It should be noted that earlier in the media there was information that a proposal for Zinchenko was being prepared to be sent to London by the Italian champion Inter Milan.. The team's head coach Simone Inzaghi is interested in signing the Ukrainian, noting his versatility and ability to play both in defense and in midfield.

This season, the Ukrainian took part in 11 matches, playing in the amount of 331 minutes. Our compatriot does not have a single complete fight to his name. Moreover, in the Premier League over the past month Zinchenko has spent only one minute on the field.
