Oleksandr Zinchenko vows to prove Arsenal 'doubters' wrong as Gunners star admits to enduring poor Premier League season

Arsenal's Ukraine international has sent out a message to fans after a season where the Gunners narrowly missed out on being crowned Premier League champions. Mikel Arteta's side managed to take the title race down to the final day before ultimately finishing second, just two points behind Zinchenko's former club Manchester City.

Zinchenko played 27 times for Arsenal in the Premier League last season but was guilty of making some costly mistakes and was even jeered by some supporters towards the end of the campaign. The Ukraine international has been criticised at times for his performances, and the 27-year-old says he know he can do better.

He wrote on Instagram: "Proud of the team and happy to be one of you Gunners. The club's season is over now and unfortunately we didn’t get what we wanted but I am sure this club is on the right way to achieve everything. Personally I completely understand that it wasn’t my best season so far and I promise first of all to all fans and doubters that I’ll be back much stronger. Thank you so much for your massive support and see you very soon."

Zinchenko is set to head to Germany for Euro 2024 with Ukraine after being named in the squad for the tournament. Ukraine take on Belgium,SlovakiaandRomaniain the group stages.
