British publication "Pain in the Arsenal" published the material "Four of Arsenal who are on thin ice ahead of the summer transfer window" and the first in this short list of players "on the way out" indicated the Ukrainian defender of the "canoniers" Oleksandr Zinchenko.
Alexander Zinchenko"Zinchenko had a terrific last season, but this season he is gradually falling out of favour. The Ukraine national team player has gone from hero to zero in the Arsenal squad, and it is difficult to pinpoint the exact moment when that happened. But as a result, a combination of certain moments upset Mikel Arteta (Arsenal head coach - editor's note) to such an extent that he removed Zinchenko from the starting line-up.
A good run of matches could have been enough for Zinchenko to regain his place in the starting line-up, but his game time doesn't look promising and Jakub Kivior, who is now playing in the Ukrainian's position, continues to impress. Until Zinni impresses again, he will be one of the players at risk of being sold, rightly or wrongly," the publication wrote.
In addition to Zinchenko, the list of Arsenal's top priority transfers for sale includes Thomas Partey, Eddie Nketiah and Cedric Soares.
Recall, in the early days of February, Zinchenko had a relapse of a calf muscle injury, and he missed five consecutive Arsenal matches. In the last two matches of the London team the footballer took part, but in the first case came on as a substitute in the 79th minute of the game, and in the second - in overtime (in the match of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League with Porto).
