Mudryk’s career in English football has not taken off despite his impressive free kick at Wembley. After a stop-start beginning, he is proving to be a long-term project for Chelsea. Despite this, he has the chance to show his readiness and reproduce his international form in the absence of Cole Palmer. Chelsea paid a significant fee for Mudryk, describing him as one of the most dangerous attacking players in Europe, but adapting to the Premier League takes time.
Pochettino emphasized that young players need time to settle and be patient, especially with such a massive change. Although he scored a late equaliser against Newcastle, Mudryk still hasn’t fully delivered for Chelsea. Pochettino praised his character and resilience, stating that he has the talent and skill to become a key player for the team but needs to manage the psychological pressure. Despite struggling at Chelsea, Mudryk shines when playing for Ukraine.
The spotlight is on him as he prepares to face Arsenal, a team he previously scored against. His resilience and positive attitude have been noted, with Pochettino believing that he has the potential to make a significant impact on the team.
