The 23 year old winger who joined from the Ukrainian giants Shakhtar Donetsk on 15th January, 2023. Mykhailo Mudryk joined for a total of 85 million Euros. However, he has been very inconsistent this season under Enzo Maresca who he has been failing to impress. In his desperation to get his career back in better ways, Mudryk is thinking about a Chelsea exit. The winger seems to be underperforming most of the matches. He has made 63 appearances since his move from Shakhtar to Chelsea but has only scored 7 goals and has made 5 assists. Being one of Todd Boehly’s costliest signings of Chelsea, he did not perform up to his mark. It was a very disappointing stat for a player his cost and such high expectations from the fans.
Chelsea must look into selling the player to invest in another winger who can improve the Blue’s performance. He was never called off the bench against Manchester City and against Crystal Palace he was called off the bench just to play for 16 minutes with the match ending in a draw. He was not in the match against Bournemouth on Saturday. Although, the Ukrainian started both the matches In the Europa
Conference League it summed up his frustrating time in Chelsea. He is on the bench against Brighton at Stamford bridge. The winger has only played 61 minutes this season. In this stage of his football career he needs more gametime and Chelsea will most probably not be able to give him that.
What is next for the Mykhailo Mudryk?
Mykhailo Mudryk has a contract with the Blues till 2031 and his wages are really high. Mykhailo gets a weekly wage of £100,000 which is becoming a burden on Chelsea. No club is ready to pay such a high fee for him either. However, according to sources Mudryk will have a Chelsea exit by January. The blues stated it as “very possible” about the departure of the Ukrainian International. German Giants Bayern Munich pushed to sign Mudryk on loan on January. However, due to the departure of Thomas Tuchel and their new manager Vincent Kompany uninterested in the 23 year old winger, the interest is diminished because he will not get along with the playstyle.
The Italian Manager De Zerbi is extremely interested in the right winger. Many sources say that Chelsea wants to make a swap deal of Mudryk and Lautaro Martinez of Inter Milan. According to football transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano, Mudryk is not thinking about leaving Chelsea at this time. The chances of the winger’s loan deal is more than a permanent move because no clubs really want to spend a huge sum of money in the middle of the season.
Mudryk and Chelsea:
Mudryk and Chelsea have complications between them. The teammates are looking to boost his confidence in various ways but it is still a burden for Chelsea because of his high wage.
Out of all the 35 signings Todd Boehly has made, Mudryk has been one of the players who hasn’t proven himself well. Chelsea’s other signings such as Jadon Sancho has already proven a lot for the blues along with Cole Palmer, the signing from Manchester City. The other players in Chelsea mostly overshadow Mudryk, but he is in dire need of game time . The fans have started to term him as one of Chelsea’s “expensive failures”.
