Chelsea are reportedly open to offloading Mykhaylo Mudryk in January if his performances do not significantly improve. The Ukrainian winger, who joined Chelsea in January 2023 for a whopping £89 million, has struggled to make a significant impact, leading to an ‘acceptance’ within the club that his signing might have been a failure.

Mudryk’s arrival at Stamford Bridge was marked by high expectations as he became the most expensive player ever to leave Ukraine, with Chelsea beating Arsenal to his signature. However, despite the initial excitement surrounding his transfer, Mudryk has failed to deliver on the pitch. According to GIVEMESPORT, there is now a growing sense that the club’s investment in the player hasn’t paid off.

The 22-year-old winger has yet to find the back of the net this season and has only managed one assist, raising concerns over his future at the club. If Mudryk’s performances do not improve in the coming months, Chelsea will reportedly be ‘open’ to considering offers for him in the January transfer window, potentially cutting their losses on a player who has not lived up to his price tag.

Since his arrival, Mudryk has recorded just 12 goal contributions in 62 games—a stark contrast to the player Chelsea believed they were acquiring. His underwhelming form has led to growing frustration among fans and the club’s hierarchy, who had hoped he would become a key figure in the squad.

While Chelsea may be willing to move Mudryk on, finding a club willing to match their valuation could prove challenging. With no apparent interest from other clubs at present and his substantial wages posing a stumbling block, a move may not be straightforward.

Chelsea will undoubtedly be hoping for a turnaround in Mudryk’s form to either justify his place in the squad or attract potential suitors. As it stands, the next few months could be crucial for his future at Stamford Bridge.
