‘Screaming’ Oleksandr Zinchenko reveals viral car window celebration with Arsenal was not a one-off

• Ukraine star joined Gunners in 2022
• Has proved to be a shrewd addition
• Passion shown on and off the pitch

WHAT HAPPENED? The Ukraine international was caught on camera by his partner shouting “come on” at Gunners supporters gathered in a nearby pub following a 4-1 victory for Mikel Arteta’s side over London neighbours Crystal Palace. Zinchenko has never tried to hide his passion – on or off the pitch – and claims to regularly “scream” at Arsenal followers when making his way home from triumphant appearances.

WHAT THEY SAID: Zinchenko has told the Daily Mail: “This is one of my favourite corners in London. Every time I'm passing this pub – because it's the way to my home – and every time there is a lot of Arsenal fans. Every time I try to put my window down and scream because after [a game] I have incredible energy. And you just want to share these emotions with them.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Zinchenko, who was a four-time Premier League title winner at Manchester City, has proved to be a shrewd addition for the Gunners – with the winning mentality that he brings to the fold at Emirates Stadium helping Arsenal to open up an eight-point lead at the top of the table in 2022-23.
