The Sky Sports pundit previously labelled the Blues' strategy in the market as a 'scattergun approach' and he has taken further aim on the business conducted in January. Speaking on his podcast, Neville said: "There's no such thing as certainty in an eight-year contract.

"Let's say Mykhailo (Mudryk) becomes a Lionel Messi in four years and Chelsea would sit here today and say "we've got him locked down for another four years on a lower wage. I don't care whether he's got four years left on his contract or not, Mudryk will kick off, his agent will kick off, he'll down tools and say 'I want more money.'
