The January transfer window has been a rollercoaster for Arsenal, to say the least.
The Gunners were heavily linked with Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudryk and there was confidence as recently as Friday that a deal could be done between the north Londoners and Shakhtar Donetsk. However, Premier League rivals Chelsea gazumped Arsenal's offer before signing the 22-year-old to a whopping eight-and-a-half-year contract on Sunday.
That leaves technical director Edu with 15 days to come up with an alternative attacker to strengthen Mikel Arteta's squad before the window slams shut. One name that has been mooted is Barcelona winger Raphinha, who Arsenal wanted to sign in the summer before the Brazilian chose to join the Blaugrana instead.
