New Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino plans to utilize Ukrainian winger Mikhail Mudrik to his full potential. Mudrik, who joined Chelsea from Shakhtar in January for 70+30 million euros, has played 17 games for the club, scoring two assists. Pochettino is known for his ability to develop players, and it is believed that he will use Mudrik in a similar way to Son Heung-min at Tottenham.
