Both clubs and the Ukrainian footballer himself officially announced the transfer.
The amount of the transfer was 30+2 million pounds.
Thus, Zinchenko will not set a new Ukrainian transfer record, owned by Andriy Shevchenko.
Sheva moved from Milan to Chelsea in 2006 for £30.8m.
Alex is a high quality player who will give us different options and versatility. It’s not just about the positions he can play, but also the versatility he will give us, in attack and defence,” said head coach Mikel Arteta.
Before that, Zinchenko recorded a video farewell to the club and Manchester City fans before the transfer to Arsenal.
The full text of the appeal of the Ukrainian football player:
It was an awesome trip. I joined the family at a very young age. And you all immediately believed me. Well, almost immediately. Together we wrote our history, got trophies, became stronger after defeats. We never looked for easy victories and knew how to celebrate them beautifully. You supported me at the most difficult moment of my life. And become a part of my heart forever. Thank you all, Manchester City. With love, Alexander Zinchenko.
The 25-year-old native of Radomyshl in the Zhytomyr region became a four-time champion of England as part of Man City, he is the best player of his team in the final match of the UEFA Champions League 2020/21.
