Chelsea’s Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudrik has been praised for his performance in his debut season by Krishan Davis, a journalist at British sports publication Goal. Mudrik joined Chelsea from Shakhtar Donetsk in January for €100m including bonuses, but has yet to become a solid fixture for the London side. Davis rated the Ukrainian winger’s performance as “nobility” and gave him a score of 3 on a ten-point scale, which places Mudrik in 19th place in the ranking of Chelsea players at the end of the season. However, Davis believes that Mudrik has great potential to progress and improve his game next season.

Davies writes that Chelsea have previously made mistakes with expensive signings.
“Chelsea fans have seen this before. A high profile striker who came to the club for a lot of money and immediately forgot how to play football as soon as he put on the blue jersey. This has happened repeatedly in their modern history,” Davis wrote.
The reporter believes Mudrik has great potential to progress and hopes to improve his game next season.
“Mudrik showed his clear potential, but for every positive moment there was a glaring mistake, bad pass or poor performance. The only mitigating factor was that the winger had not played a competitive game for over a month prior to his arrival.
However, next season everyone will expect more,” said Davis.
