Bayern Munich are targeting the Arsenal player as a possible replacement for the defender
Arsenal left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko is being targeted by European giants Bayern Munich.
The semi finals of the Champions League are scheduled before the departure of their main player.
Left-back Alphonso Davies is rumored to be leaving the Bundesliga club to join La Liga leaders Real Madrid.
According to Football Transfers (via Sport), the Bundesliga club are eyeing Zinchenko as a potential replacement for the Canadian international.
Arsenal appear to be willing to sell, but they are not willing to do so at a low price.
Several reports say that Real Madrid have already started negotiating with Davies, and there are rumors that the player is about to reach an agreement with Los Blancos.
The Gunners' asking price for the Ukrainian international is 45 million Euros.
Since his move from Manchester City, Zinchenko has been a key player in Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side.
The player has adapted well to the manager's style by helping the Gunners in midfield and creating chances, playing at left back.
Zinchenko's attacking ability is a huge asset to the Gunners and his passing through the lines is something the Gunners value.
However, he has a tendency to lose focus while defending at times and his defense has been heavily criticized.
Bayern Munich are not the only club monitoring the Gunners left-back at the moment.
Newcastle United are reportedly interested in signing the Man City defender, who has two years left on his Arsenal contract.
The Arsenal manager has work to do in the summer
Arteta will have to make a decision this summer; either offering a new contract to the player or selling him for a good price.
The Gunners are determined to make changes this summer and another player signed by Man City, Gabriel Jesus, may leave the club as it is reported that Arsenal want to sell him.
The North London club is ready to show brutality in the transfer market not only in terms of incoming but also outgoing.
