Mykhailo Mudryk: Chelsea agree £85m transfer deal for Arsenal target and Shakhtar Donetsk winger | Football News
Chelsea have agreed a deal worth £85m with Shakhtar Donetsk for winger Mykhailo Mudryk.
Sky Sports News has been told Mudryk was on the way to west London for a medical on Saturday.
It is thought Chelsea are confident of securing the transfer.
Arsenal remained in talks as recently as Friday but were prepared to walk away from the transfer if the deal was not right.
In social media posts, Mudryk had previously indicated Arsenal was his preferred destination, with personal terms not expected to have been a problem.
Why Mudryk is in demand
At the start of last season, he was an unknown outside of Ukraine with a transfer value of under £1m. Now he is one of the most coveted young players in Europe. Following an explosive rise, Mudryk looks destined for big things.
The 21-year-old, who showcased his thrilling speed and one-on-one ability in the Champions League group stage earlier this season, has been described by Darijo Srna, Shakhtar Donetsk’s director of football, as “the best player in Europe in his position” after Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior.
There may be a hint of exaggeration to that statement but Srna is not the only one to hold Mudryk in high regard. His list of suitors is a long one and Premier League leaders Arsenal sit at the top of it.
