Chelsea stance on Mykhailo Mudryk's future made clear amid January exit rumours

Premier League

Liverpool

Chelsea

<p>The Ukraine international swapped Shakhtar Donetsk for Chelsea in an £88.5 million (€105m/$109m) move in early 2023 but he has failed to fire at Stamford Bridge thus far. Following <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/chelsea-to-offload-mykhailo-mudryk-january-jadon-sancho-pedro-neto-captures-could-join-marseille/blt670328760a9a70a2" target="_blank">links with Marseille</a>, <a href="https://x.com/JacobsBen/status/1844756521244381324" target="_blank">journalist Ben Jacobs</a> claims the Blues don't want to let the 23-year-old leave the club in January in any shape or form. He adds head coach Enzo Maresca is challenging the winger to improve and still sees him as an important player.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Mudryk signed in a big-money move but in 66 appearances he has scored just seven goals and provided as many assists. He is on a contract at Chelsea until 2031 and if his form doesn't improve, the Blues will have a depreciating asset on their books - one that may be difficult to sell. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The Ukrainian has made eight appearances in all competitions this season, five of which have been starts. However, he has predominantly been used in the cup competitions rather than in the Premier League - where he has just one start to his name this term.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Mudryk, who according to Jacobs is offering 'strong competition' to Jadon Sancho for a starting spot in Maresca's side, will hope to get more minutes for Chelsea in their next match away at table-topping Liverpool on October 20.</p>
