Arsenal, Aston Villa, Manchester United vying for Viktor Tsygankov

Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Viktor Tsygankov from La Liga club Girona in the summer transfer window.

According to a report by Spanish outlet AS, Viktor Tsygankov is attracting interest from Premier League clubs. Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Manchester United are keen on signing the Ukrainian winger from La Liga club Girona, with the trio sounding out a possible summer move. Meanwhile, the Catalan outfit will demand €30 million to part ways with him.

Viktor Tsygankov and his La Liga adventure so far

Viktor Tsygankov has established himself as one of the best wingers in La Liga since joining Girona from Dynamo Kyiv in January 2023. Born in Nahariya, Israel, he spent his formative years in Ukraine and graduated from the youth division at Dynamo Kyiv a few years ago.

The 26-year-old spent most of his career thus far at Dynamo Kyiv before joining Girona. Tsygankov, who has chipped in with 11 goals and 13 assists in over 50 appearances for Girona, has been instrumental in the Catalan outfit’s rise in La Liga and helped them finish in the top four in the 2023/24 season.

While the Red and Whites are preparing for a historic UEFA Champions League campaign, the Ukrainian international might not be at Estadi Montilivi for much longer. A move to the Premier League might be on the cards, with Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Manchester United vying for his signature in the summer transfer window, with the trio sounding out a possible move.

Premier League move on the horizon?

Arsenal’s interest in Viktor Tsygankov is understandable. Mikel Arteta wants two top-notch options for every position in his squad as he looks to compete for every trophy season after season. So, Tsygankov has emerged as a viable target for Arsenal. As for Aston Villa, the Villans are parting ways with Moussa Diaby this summer, with the Frenchman closing in on moving to the Saudi Pro League.

So, it behoves Aston Villa to invest in a wide attacker, with Tsygankov being an option worth considering. Meanwhile, Manchester United are desperate to end their long-standing right-wing issue in the summer transfer window, which suggests why Tsygankov has emerged on their radar.

With Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Manchester United making their initial moves to sign Tsygankov, their bids might arrive soon. The 26-year-old Ukrainian international will not cost a bomb, with his contract having a release clause worth €30 million. It will be interesting to see if a summer move to the Premier League sees the light of day for the €30 million-rated winger after his adventure in La Liga.
