Chelsea is ready to spend 65 million euros to recruit Mykhaylo Mudryk’s former teammate, midfielder Georgiy Sudakov.

Georgiy Sudakov is a star being followed by Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea this season. The player, born in 2002, has scored a total of eight goals this season for Shakhtar Donetsk Club.

According to The Sun, Chelsea is actively working to quickly close this deal. Georgiy Sudakov currently has a contract release fee of up to 125 million pounds, a huge number for a 21-year-old player.

Luckily for English football representatives, Shakhtar CEO Sergei Palkin is ready to sell his star in the upcoming transfer window.

“He will definitely move to a European club this summer. I talked to Chelsea and they showed special interest in him.”

If he joins Chelsea, Georgiy Sudakov will reunite with his former teammate Mykhaylo Mudryk. The two are good friends at the national team and had beautiful times at Shakhtar.

This newspaper emphasized that the Blues are expected to spend about 65 million pounds to convince Shakhtar to agree to release the player.

This is a somewhat risky move by Chelsea’s Board of Directors. Because in recent seasons they have always made hasty but ineffective spending decisions, for example in the case of Mykhaylo Mudryk, who has not yet shown himself worthy of the money Chelsea spent.
