Arsenal are preparing to part ways with Oleksandr Zinchenko in the current transfer window, with the defender’s time at the Emirates now seemingly at an end. With less than a year remaining on his contract, his role in the squad has diminished significantly, and the club are now open to his departure.
Last season marked a turning point for Zinchenko, as opportunities became increasingly limited. The emergence of Myles Lewis Skelly and the arrival of Riccardo Calafiori further reduced his relevance within the team, and with competition for places only intensifying, the Ukrainian international is expected to spend even more time on the bench this season. Recognising this, Arsenal have been willing to facilitate his exit.
Fenerbahçe Close to Securing Zinchenko
While interest has been reported from clubs such as West Ham and AC Milan, Zinchenko now appears set to continue his career outside Europe’s top five leagues. Turkish side Fenerbahçe, have been engaged in discussions to secure his signature over recent weeks, demonstrating a strong commitment to finalising the deal.
According to Sporx, Arsenal and Fenerbahçe have now reached a total agreement regarding the transfer. The report indicates that the Gunners see Zinchenko as a player they need to move on sooner rather than later, and they have accepted the proposal from the Istanbul-based club. This agreement paves the way for his departure, marking the end of his time in North London.
Logical Move for Both Parties
For Arsenal, the decision represents a strategic step, clearing space in the squad for players who are more integral to Mikel Arteta’s plans while also avoiding the risk of losing Zinchenko for free at the end of his contract. For the player himself, the move offers the chance to regain regular football in a competitive environment, free from the intense competition he currently faces at Arsenal.
The transfer to Fenerbahçe, therefore, appears to serve the interests of all involved, providing Arsenal with a timely resolution while offering Zinchenko the opportunity for a fresh start. With an agreement reportedly in place, his departure now looks inevitable as the Gunners reshape their squad ahead of the new campaign.
