Clubs can officially buy and sell players starting from Sunday, June 1. Incomings and outgoings are expected at the Emirates, with a new striker thought to be top priority.

Viktor Gyokeres

"Let us see," he said. "It's hard for me to say, because yeah it is football and you never know what's going to happen in the summer. So for me to say anything else than that is impossible."

Asked specifically about Arsenal, he added: "I don't know, I just focus on this. I've tried to focus on the last games because it's so important and I don't want to think about anything else. So yeah, if anything is true, let's see in the summer."

The current squad appears to have outgrown Zinchenko but there are plenty of teams that would be willing to snap him up sharply, with the versatile Ukranian likely frustrated with a lack of time on the pitch.
