“Stop wasting time & join Man united” “Flop player at Chelsea” – Chelsea flop told to stop wasting time and sign for United
Mykhailo Mudryk has been advised by Emmanuel Petit to quit “wasting time” and depart Chelsea during the January transfer window.
Almost two years have passed since the Ukraine international rejected a possible transfer to Arsenal in favor of joining the Blues.
Under a string of managers, Mudryk has failed, and the most recent occupant of the Stamford Bridge hot seat, Enzo Maresca, has struggled to make room in his starting lineup for the unpredictable winger.
The 23-year-old has been handed the majority of his opportunities this season in the cup competitions and looks unlikely to oust the likes of Pedro Neto and Noni Madueke as Maresca’s first choice wide men.
Petit, however, still believes Mudryk can prosper in the Premier League and is confident he would thrive at Old Trafford in Ruben Amorim’s 3-4-3 system.
Petit told GamblingZone: ‘Sooner or later, Mudryk needs to make a decision. He arrived at the club two years ago and what has he done? He has not improved and he’s missing a valuable period of his career and his confidence is down.
‘He’s 23 and he’s wasting too much time already and with the new sports direction at Chelsea, I don’t think he has a future there.
‘However, I think Man United could be an excellent opportunity for him as he suits in Ruben Amorim’s formation. His 3-4-3 could see him play him inside right behind the striker at Old Trafford.’
Petit, meanwhile, has backed Amorim to get the best out former Chelsea star Mason Mount, whose move to the Theatre of Dreams has been undermined by a series of injury setbacks.
‘I hope Mason Mount can get back on track under Amorim and I look at Hoijlund and Zirkzee, who both scored two goals in recent games, and it makes me hope the same can happen for Mount,’ Petit added.
‘Zirkzee was receiving so much criticism and now he’s scored two goals and it shows that Amorim can work his magic, why can’t the same happen to Mount?
‘I know that Amorim really likes Mount, saying he’s so professional and has great qualities, so it’s an important time for Mount.’
