Chelsea fans were very happy to see Mudryk in top form. They praised the player through social media. But will it be enough to force Chelsea into changing their plans still remains a question.
Chelsea can send the player on loan for rest of the season. They can monitor the player’s progress before selling him as the winger is still 23 years old and will enter the peak of his career. As for the player, he maybe open for a loan move as it will mean that he can play regularly at the highest level.
