Mykhailo Mudryk was seen at the Emirates Stadium while watching an Arsenal match against his former team, Shakhtar Donetsk, in the Champions League.
The Ukrainian spent five years with Shakhtar Donetsk before joining Chelsea in the January transfer window for a transfer fee worth £88 million.
During his playing time at Shakhtar Donetsk, the winger scored 12 goals and provided 17 assists in 44 appearances in all competitions.
Mudryk’s impressive performance with Shakhtar Donetsk caught the attention of Arsenal and Chelsea.
The Arsenal side pushed to sign the Ukrainian in 2023 before Chelsea went ahead to hijack the deal with a huge transfer fee and wages. The football star has continued to underperform since he moved to Chelsea in 2023.
In his last 66 appearances for Chelsea, the winger has only scored seven goals in all club competitions.
There is uncertainty surrounding the player’s future at Chelsea, and he may consider moving to another club in the January transfer window.
How Can Arsenal Revive Mykhailo Mudryk’s Falling Career?
Mudryk’s chances of playing a competitive match for Chelsea have been limited due to the competition on the right wing of the pitch.
Jadon Sancho and Pedro Neto are expected to start ahead of Mudryk in subsequent matches in all competitions.
The two right-wingers of the Arsenal team, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli, need more competition because they are currently struggling to make a significant impact.
Arsenal can revive Mudryk’s career by bidding for the winger in the 2025 January transfer window.
Mudryk is expected to fit in the Mikel Arteta style of play because of the player’s ability to cut in through the defense, hit the ball from an unexpected spot, and create chances.
However, there is huge doubt on whether Arsenal will take the risk to sign the Ukrainian in the January transfer window.
