The manager noted the professionalism of the Ukrainian player
CEO of Shakhtar Sergey Palkin said that the Ukrainian midfielder Mikhail Mudrik he was sympathetic to his sale and did not blackmail the leadership of the Miners.
“We didn’t have detailed discussions with Mudrik. He was professional, he didn’t push us. He didn’t want to meet with us to ask why we didn’t sell him or complain that he wasn’t sold for 50 or 60 million euros.”
“We just said: “Mikhail, we are negotiating. We want to help and we believe we will improve it, so just relax, train hard and that’s it.”
“There was no pressure from him or from the agent. In addition, his agent gave an interview in which he said that Mudryk is a professional, trains well and that they respect his devotion to Shakhtar.”
The midfielder signed a contract with Chelsea for eight and a half years. The Ukrainian will perform in the London club under the 15th number. The Blues will pay 100 million euros for Mudrik, of which 30 million are bonus payments.
In the race for Ukrainian talent, Chelsea overtook Arsenal. According to Palkin, the Pitmen were not satisfied with the system of payments from Arsenal, so the Donetsk club accepted Chelsea’s offer.
