Between the two British capitals, London, Chelsea and Arsenal, there is a fierce battle to sign the young Ukrainian Mihail Modric from Shakhtar Donetsk for 100 million euros, making him the most expensive deal this winter. London will negotiate the sale of their young star to Arsenal or Chelsea in the transfer market and complete the deal in the current transfer market, which ends at the end of January.
According to a London-based journalist, Mihailo Modric, 22, does not want to choose between the two, whether to move to Arsenal, who are making a big revolution this season and are fighting for the title, or join a long-term project under Graham Potter at Chelsea.
Sergei Balkin and Dario Serna, general manager and sporting director of Shakhtar Donetsk, met with American Todd Boyle, owner of Chelsea, during the defeat against Manchester City last Thursday in the English Premier League.
Mihail Modric excelled this season with Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League, scoring 3 goals and scoring two goals in 6 matches.
Modric played 44 matches with Shakhtar, in which he scored 12 goals and provided 7 assists, while he played 8 matches for his country in which he did not score, and Arsenal is leading the standings of the English Premier League with 44 points , while Chelsea are 10th in the Premier League standings with 25 points.
