Chelsea hierarchy warned Mykhailo Mudryk that he could face a huge time getting minutes if he signed for Arsenal, The Athletic reports.But after several weeks of negotiations, the Gunners were unable to agree a fee with Shakhtar Donetsk.Blues co-owner Behdad Eghbali and director of global transfers Paul Winstanley flew to Turkey for face-to-face negotiations with Shakhtar on Saturday, before flying back to London with Mudryk once an £88.6 million deal had been agreed.
It is understood that Arsenal was Mudryk’s preferred destination and during lengthy talks on Saturday, Chelsea made a case as to why the 22-year-old should make the move to Stamford Bridge instead. Chelsea told Mudryk that he would play a key role in Graham Potter’s side and that the club would provide a “platform” for him to thrive.
The report also claims that Chelsea chiefs argued that Mudryk would face more difficulty at Arsenal where he would be fighting for a spot alongside Gabriel Martinelli.
