Mykhailo Mudryk, the Chelsea winger, could be on his way out. He arrived from Ukraine for a lot of money, but he hasn’t performed well in the Premier League. Chelsea might opt to let him go because he hasn’t performed well. He was meant to do better, but that hasn’t happened. He only scored four times in 42 games. Perhaps switching to a new team will help him.
Mykhailo Mudryk was desperate to join Arsenal
Mykhailo Mudryk was reportedly crying on the phone to Arsenal. He wanted them to stop his transfer to Arsenal from not happening. Mudryk was wanted by Arsenal a year ago, but he went to Chelsea instead because Arsenal thought he was too expensive.

Arsenal probably doesn’t care much anymore because the player they wanted before hasn’t done well at Chelsea. Instead, they got Leandro Trossard from Brighton, who has been really good for their team under Mikel Arteta, even though he doesn’t always start every game. But Mudryk is still a talented player and maybe Arteta can make him play well.
Arsenal needs better players on the sides, and Mudryk could help if he plays really well. He could be a good backup for players like Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli. Mikel Arteta couldn’t change his attack much because they don’t have many players. Getting another winger could be smart. Arsenal probably won’t pay a lot for Mudryk, so Chelsea might lose a lot of money. Fans will have to wait and see what happens. Chelsea needs to improve their attack and sell players to get money for new ones. They’ve spent a lot lately and need to follow the FFP rules now. It’ll be interesting to see where Mudryk goes.
Arsenal seemed like they were going to sign Mudryk in January 2023 and were ready to spend a lot, breaking their record with an £86m deal. But Chelsea’s offer was better, so they got Mudryk instead. Since leaving Shakhtar Donetsk for the Premier League, Mudryk has not done well.
