Maresca: Chelsea signed Mudrik as an important player. I hope he can perform well tomorrow

The Blues will play Ghent in the Conference League on Thursday

Mentor Chelsea Enzo Maresca expressed support for the Ukrainian winger Mikhail Mudrik and announced his appearance on the field in the upcoming match with Ghent in the Conference League.

“The club signed Misha Mudrik as an important player and he is not currently playing in the Premier League. But things change quickly in football. I hope he can perform well tomorrow. He played very well against Burrow.”

Mudrik moved to Chelsea in January 2023 and signed an eight-and-a-half-year contract. Chelsea and Shakhtar agreed on the transfer of Mudryk for 100 million euros. Last season, 23-year-old Mudrik played in 41 matches for the Blues in all competitions, scoring seven goals and providing two assists.

In the start of the 2024/25 season, Mudryk only appeared in Chelsea’s starting lineup once in a Premier League match. In total, the Ukrainian played six matches (3 in the Premier League, 2 in Conference League qualifying and 1 in the League Cup), scoring two assists.

The 23-year-old Ukrainian wants to continue his development and improvement as a football player, and for this he is ready to change his club registration in order to get more playing time. The Blues management is ready to release the player during the winter transfer window.

Among the contenders for the player was Marseille. Information also appeared about Mudrik’s potential rental to Barcelona in the winter and interest from Liverpool.

Maresca’s team is in fourth place in the Premier League standings. Tomorrow, October 3, the Blues will play a Conference League match with Ghent. The start of the match is at 22:00 Kyiv time.
