Liverpool are reportedly considering a surprising move for Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk. The 23-year-old Ukrainian has struggled to meet expectations since his transfer to Stamford Bridge and has faced criticism for his performances.
A change of scenery could benefit him, and Liverpool might be ready to offer him a way out. According to Fichajes, Liverpool is exploring potential replacements for Mohamed Salah and is monitoring Mudryk’s situation. The report suggests that Liverpool could negotiate a deal for around €35 million, potentially increasing to €50 million, though it’s unclear if an agreement can be reached.
This move would be unexpected given Mudryk’s lackluster record at Chelsea (seven goals in 64 appearances). Replacing the world-class Salah with a player who hasn’t performed well would likely not sit well with Liverpool fans.
Chelsea will look to offload Mykhailo Mudryk, having invested €100 million in him. They recognize that selling him will result in a significant loss, but recouping €50 million could be a reasonable option as they aim to minimize their losses.
The funds from his sale could be reinvested into the squad. Over the coming months, it will be interesting to see how this situation unfolds. Mohamed Salah is one of the world’s top players, and Liverpool will need to find a suitable replacement. It’s unlikely that Mudryk can adequately fill the gap left by him.
