Shakhtar are in the middle of their league’s mid-season break and have not played since November.
Mudryk has been a star for the club this season and is a much-wanted target of Mikel Arteta’s side.
Arsenal have had two bids turned down as Shakhtar are holding out for a larger fee, believed to be £88million.
However, the North London club are believed to be closing in on an agreement to sign him, which would be a massive boost.

London rivals Chelsea are also targetting Mudryk, but according to his social media, the 22-year-old would prefer a move to the Emirates over Stamford Bridge.
The Gunners will hope that if they can land Mudryk that he can help add some firepower in their hunt for a Premier League title.
Following injury to Gabriel Jesus, Arteta’s side are short in attack, despite Eddie Nketiah’s current purple patch of form.
This season Mudryk has netted ten times in all competitions, including three in the Champions League.
