Arsenal and AC Milan have reportedly contacted the representatives of 26-year-old Girona winger Viktor Tsygankov over a possible summer move.
According to a report by Spanish outlet AS, Viktor Tsygankov is the subject of interest from Arsenal. The 26-year-old Girona winger is also a target for AC Milan. The two European bigwigs have established contacts with his representatives over a possible move in the summer transfer window.
Viktor Tsygankov and his rise at Girona FC
Viktor Tsygankov was one of the best wingers in La Liga in the 2023/24 season. A native of Nahariya, Israel, he spent his formative years in Ukraine and graduated from the youth division at Dynamo Kyiv. However, his stock has soared since joining Girona from Dynamo Kyiv in January 2023.
The 26-year-old enjoyed an exceptional 2023/24 campaign, playing his part in Girona clinching a top-four finish in La Liga and qualifying for the UEFA Champions League. Tsygankov contributed to 15 goals in 30 La Liga appearances, finding the back of the net eight times while providing seven assists.
Tsygankov’s progress at Girona FC has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. A move to the Premier League might be on the cards, with many well-known outfits setting their sights on him. Arsenal will look to beat the competition to his signature.
London calling?
Arsenal’s interest in Viktor Tsygankov is understandable. The Gunners are scouring the market for a wide attacker heading into the summer transfer window, with Mikel Arteta keen on having two top-class options for every position in his squad. The Girona winger has thus emerged as a viable target for the North London club.
The Gunners have now established contacts with Viktor Tsygankov’s representatives over a possible move in the summer transfer window. However, they are not alone in the race to sign the 26-year-old, with AC Milan also interested in the Girona winger while approaching his entourage.
In addition, recent reports have linked the Ukrainian international with European heavyweights like Barcelona and Bayern Munich. It will be interesting to see if the 26-year-old joins Arsenal instead of the other big-name suitors in the summer transfer window.
