The winning blitz, suddenly. And Chelsea wins Mykhailo Mudryknugget of Shakhtar Donetsk, stealing him from Arsenal who he said he was optimistic about a deal that had been going on for some time now. Overtaking helped. Thanks to the money, first of all. A lot of money. And to a trip to Turkey (Shakhtar is training there) by the management of the Blues for a decisive face-to-face in which a stellar agreement was found, in three figures: 70 million plus another 30 in bonuses, for a total of 100 million euros (88.5 million pounds) round and round. He reveals it The Athletic.
Agreement with the player and Shakhtar satisfied
Shakhtar Donetsk have always been clear about their best player’s assessment: “We want €100m.” The Ukrainians had declared it and they were satisfied. Todd Boehly’s new Chelsea has invested heavily in the star born in 2001, one of the best young talents in Europe, author of 10 goals and 8 assists in 18 games in the season between the league and the Champions League. And he did it with a long-term project, offering him a seven-year contract (soon accepted by the player). He will still have to be put in black and white, but in England they have no doubts: Mudryk is Chelsea’s next coup. With all due respect to Arsenal.
