Chelsea announce Mykhaylo Mudryk transfer from Shakhtar Donetsk on long-term deal

Chelsea have announced the signing of Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk on a eight-and-a-half-year contract. The 22-year-old was a long-term target for Arsenal before the Blues stepped in to bolster their frontline.

He joins on an expected £62m deal with an additional £26m in add-ons. He is already the fifth signing of this window and follows Joao Felix, Andrey Santos, Benoit Badiashile and David Datro Fofana through the door under Graham Potter.

Mudryk has seven goals and six assists this season in 12 league games as well as standing out in the Champions League, where he scored three times and assisted twice in a group including Real Madrid and RB Leipzig.
