OLEKSANDR ZINCHENKO has shown his love for his new team, Arsenal, by having a fantastic painting of himself placed on the wall of the home gym at Emirates Stadium.
The Ukrainian athlete’s training space has been transformed into an Arsenal-themed chamber.
Zinchenko turned to artist Emma Kenny for help in achieving his intended result.
After two weeks of hard work, Kenny was able to bring the football player’s incredible dream to life.
She posted an amazing video to Instagram that showed off the completed project and showed her working on the difficult project.
A panoramic vista of Emirates Stadium in bright sunlight is accompanied by two large photos of Zinchenko, 25, wearing an Arsenal uniform.
In one, he is seen making a victorious gesture of defiance, while in the other, his name and No. 35 shirt are displayed.

Emma told SunSport that Zinchenko had reached out to her on Instagram about the project.
Although she had a significant challenge in finishing it before his move-in date, she managed to produce a piece of art.
“It was an enormous challenge but incredibly rewarding, and he was ecstatic with the outcome,” she told SunSport of Zinchenko’s response to her incredible effort.

Zinchenko has added inspirational quotes and words to the walls in addition to the amazing artwork.
Among them are the terms “believe,” “discipline,” “strong,” “consistency,” and “secret.”
The phrase “1% talent, 99% effort” is also frequently written on the wall.
Emma received a great deal of praise for her remarkable artwork after a video clip was shared on social media.
