Sky Sports pundit, Jamie Carragher has expressed his joy for Chelsea star, Mykhailo Mudryk.

Mudryk was involved for the Blues during Monday night’s Premier League win against Newcastle United.

Despite playing for less than 20 minutes of normal time, the Ukrainian popped up with a beautiful goal in the game— rounding off Martin Dubvraka to add Chelsea’s third in the 3-2 win.

It was a much-needed goal for Mudryk, who has endured harsh comments since joining Chelsea from Shakhtar Donetsk, and Jamie Carragher says he is delighted for the winger.

The Liverpool legend told Sky Sports: “I was just pleased Mudryk scored. It’s not been easy for him.

“It hasn’t gone as well for him as he would have liked. It’s shocking from Newcastle.

“I saw him in the Champions League a couple of years ago, there’s a player there. Hopefully this for him is the start of something.”
