“Massively failed mission for you, just leave” – Chelsea star told to leave Stamford Bridge in January after worst start at Chelsea
Liverpool star Stan Collymore has urged Chelsea star Mykhailo Mudryk to leave the club in January on loan. The Englishman believes the Ukrainian winger will greatly benefit from the experience and can return to the West London outfit and establish his place in the starting XI.
Collymore told Caught Offside:
“There have been some reports that a January loan move for Mykhailo Mudryk could be on the cards. I actually think that’s a great idea. Let’s not forget, this is a young player who played just 44 games for Shakhtar Donetsk before Chelsea signed him for nearly £90 million.”
The former Liverpool striker believes Mudryk has failed to live up to his price tag and lacks the necessary experience to be a regular starter for the Blues. He added:
“Some players can live up to the hype, others can’t, and so far, Mudryk has massively failed. He can still fulfil his potential – he’s only 22 years old but he has to rack up more games before Chelsea can expect him to be their first-choice left winger. He is simply too inexperienced.”
Chelsea signed Mudryk from FC Shakhtar Donetsk in the 2023 January transfer window for £88.5 million. The Ukraine international is yet to impress at Stamford Bridge since his arrival, recording two assists and no goals in 15 Premier League appearances during the 2022/23 campaign.The winger has not gotten on the scoresheet for the Blues this season as well, after registering four league appearances. Reports suggest that the West London outfit are ready to sanction a loan move for Mudryk in January after his poor start to life at Stamford Bridge (via 90min).
