Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has backed Chelsea star Mykhailo Mudryk to impress in the coming weeks despite a mixed start to life in England. The 22-year-old winger has failed to make the impact he would have wanted after joining for £62m in January.
After looking bright and lively in his debut cameo against Liverpool at Anfield the Ukraine international has found himself in-and-out of the side in recent weeks as Graham Potter tries to find his best team. With Arsenal also chasing the exciting youngster throughout the past six months his struggle has only been further highlighted with alternative Leandro Trossard hitting the ground running at the Emirates Stadium.
Mudryk was preferred to Christian Pulisic in the starting line-up against Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge on Saturday though with Joao Felix and Kai Havertz partnering him in the same front three that helped to beat Leicester before the break. Hasselbaink can see him making waves in the league in the near future.
