Mykhailo Mudryk has proven that he's ready to play the 'Son Heung-min role' under Mauricio Pochettino following his impressive performance for Ukraine in the Under-21 European Championships quarter-final. Despite having shown flashes of brilliance, the 22-year-old winger struggled to impress in his debut Premier League campaign.
While Mudryk is yet to score his first goal for Chelsea, he only ever completed 90 minutes in the English top-flight once. Starting just seven games and being brought off the bench in eight, the Ukraine international was denied the chance to build any momentum.
After struggling to find his feet, Mudryk has worked tremendously hard this summer to ensure that he's ready to compete for a place in Pochettino's starting lineup. The winger took the decision to represent his country in the Under-21 European Championships in order to recapture his best form in time for the new season.
