Former Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf has expressed his disappointment with the performance of Mykhailo Mudryk, stating that he wouldn't even sign him for £1m due to his struggles at the club. Mudryk, who joined Chelsea for a whopping £62m from Shakhtar Donetsk in January 2023, has failed to live up to expectations and has only managed to score seven goals in 58 appearances.
Leboeuf believes that the Ukrainian winger is a "lost cause" and that Chelsea will not make any profit from his transfer. He also pointed out that Mudryk has not shown any improvement under different managers, making it difficult for any potential buyers to invest in him. Despite understanding the challenges he may have faced moving from his home in Ukraine, Leboeuf still doubts Mudryk's potential and suggests that Chelsea should replace him.
The former Chelsea player, who was bought for £2m in 1996, finds it insane that Mudryk was signed for £70m. He also mentioned that the winger's struggles continued at Euro 2024, where he failed to score or assist in Ukraine's group-stage exit. Even though ex-England goalkeeper Joe Hart believes that Mudryk has a lot of talent, he agrees that the player has not been able to shine at Chelsea.
Hart recalls playing against Mudryk during his time at Shakhtar and acknowledges his threat on the field. However, he also admits that Chelsea is currently a difficult club for players to shine in. With the team still trying to build a strong foundation, it has been a challenging season for many players, including Mudryk. Hart is hopeful that once Chelsea find their footing, the young winger will be able to showcase his talents.
Despite the struggles, Mudryk remains determined to turn his Stamford Bridge career around, according to Hart. He adds that the player is constantly working hard and is always out practicing his shooting. With a new Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca, taking over next season, there may be a chance for Mudryk to improve and prove himself.
