Mykhaylo Mudryk spotted at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea v Crystal Palace before transfer unveiling

Chelsea transfer target Mykhaylo Mudryk has been spotted at Stamford Bridge before the clash against Crystal Palace. The 22-year-old appears set to be unveiled as a new signing for the Blues, with reports claiming that an £88million deal has been struck with Shakhtar Donetsk for his services.

The 22-year-old is set to sign a seven-year deal at the club, continuing the trend of young additions joining for long contracts under the new Boehly-Clearlake regime. Mudryk has been heavily linked with a move to rivals Arsenal, who had three bids rejected for the winger.

However, it was Chelsea that acted quickest, u-turning on their decision to not lodge a bid and instead fast-tracking a deal on Saturday. The Ukraine international then made the flight to London, where he booked a medical and is said to have finalised any contract details.
