Pochettino: Mudrik may be closer to comeback than Broya and Badiashile, but we need to evaluate him day by day

It is likely that the Ukrainian midfielder will have time to recover before the break for international matches

Head coach Chelsea Mauricio Pochettino assessed the condition of the Ukrainian midfielder Mikhail Mudrik before meeting with AFC Wimbledon in the second round english league cup.

“Maybe Misha is closer to a return than Broya and Badyashil, but we need to evaluate him day by day,” the Argentine specialist emphasized.

Recall, earlier it was reported that Mudrik, who was injured in training and has already missed the championship match against Luton (3:0), will definitely not play in the League Cup match against Wimbledon.

A lot of players remain in the infirmary of the London club. Long out of the game Wesley Fofana, Christopher Nkunku and Kearney Chukwuemeka. In addition to Mudrik, Marcus Bettinelli, Rhys James and Trevo Chalobah, who are actively interested in Bayern, continue to recover.

At the same time, it was reported that defender Benoit Badiashile and forward Armando Broya, who have not yet played this season, are close to recovery. According to the head coach, their condition will be assessed after the international pause for national team matches. At the same time, Pochettino believes that Mudrik is closer to returning to the squad than the mentioned Frenchman and Albanian.

This season, Mudryk twice came on as a substitute in Chelsea matches without scoring. The winger has provided two assists in 17 games for the Blues this past campaign.

Chelsea scored 4 points in three rounds and is 10th in the standings.

Mudryk was called up to the Ukrainian national team for the September Euro 2024 qualifying matches. On September 9, Sergei Rebrov’s wards will host the England team in Wroclaw, Poland. The Italy-Ukraine match will take place on September 12 in Milan at the San Siro stadium.
