Liverpool has been mentioned as a possible surprise acquisition of Mykhailo Mudryk, a winger for Chelsea.
The 23-year-old international player from Ukraine has received criticism for his performances because he hasn’t been able to measure up to the standards since moving to Stamford Bridge.
Moving away from Chelsea may be the perfect opportunity for the winger, who could use a fresh start. It appears that Liverpool might be open to providing him a way out shortly.
Fichajes claims that Liverpool is monitoring the Chelsea winger and searching for players to take Mohamed Salah’s place in the starting lineup. According to the source, Liverpool is prepared to discuss a contract for the Ukrainian player for approximately €35 million. It is unclear if the two sides will be able to reach an agreement, and the total package could reach €50 million.
Given Mudryk’s Chelsea performances since joining the team (seven goals in 64 games), the move would be extremely unexpected. It would be illogical for Liverpool to start the Chelsea bust in place of Salah, who has been a truly exceptional player for the Reds.
The fans are not likely to be pleased with the signing either.
Chelsea is hoping to let Mykhailo Mudryk go.
The Blues will be fully aware that if they sell the player, they will have to absorb a significant loss on their investment of €100 million. For him, recovering €50 million might not be a terrible idea. Their goal is to reduce their losses related to the player.
The money that Chelsea receives from his departure will be put back into the playing group.
It will be interesting to watch how things work out in the coming months. As one of the greatest players in the world, Salah will need to be sufficiently replaced by Liverpool. The likelihood of Mudryk being able to fill the vacuum created by him.
