The Ukrainian international, now 27, could be available for transfer, and Kompany sees him as a key addition to his new team. The reported transfer fee for Zinchenko is around £35 million ($45m), a price that Bayern Munich may be willing to pay to secure the versatile left-back's services.

Arsenal leading race for Napoli's Osimhen

Arsenal have emerged as a strong contender in the race to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

This contract, which runs until 2026, includes a substantial release clause estimated to be between €120-130 million (£102m/$130m - £111m/$141m).
