What Oleksandr Zinchenko did to Mykhaylo Mudryk after Chelsea hijacked Arsenal’s ยฃ88m transfer

Mykhaylo Mudryk, a forward for Shakhtar Donetsk, will join Chelsea for a reported sum of around ยฃ88 million, plus add-ons, according to a statement from Chelsea.

 

The player was today introduced at Stamford Bridge as a player for the Blues with a contract that expires in June 2030 with a season extension option.

During the previous six months, the 22-year-old was extensively linked to a transfer to Arsenal, but he will now wear the blue of Chelsea.

Following an agreement between Chelsea and Shakhtar, Mudryk will sign an eight-and-a-half-year contract. The initial ยฃ62 million payment will be followed by ยฃ26 million in add-ons. In this month’s entryway, the Ukrainian joins Joao Felix, Andrey Santos, Benoit Badiashile, and David Datro Fofana.

After the Gunners spent most of the transfer window in talks with Shakhtar themselves, Mudryk’s move to Stamford Bridge puts a wrench in Mikel Arteta’s January ambitions at Arsenal. To improve Arteta’s team’s offensive possibilities, technical director Edu gave the forward top priority.

Despite apparently making two separate offers for the Shakhtar attacker, Arsenal reportedly failed to match Mudryk’s asking price.

Within a few hours, news broke that Chelsea and the Ukrainian team had reached a deal, and during their Premier League match against Crystal Palace, Chelsea announced the signing of the forward.

What happened?

Social media movement has givenย lots of talking points, including clues, messages, and confirmation of an agreement, similar to the transfer story surrounding Mudryk.

Oleksandr Zinchenko unfollowed his countrymen on Instagram after hearing about Mudryk’s relocation to west London. After only a few days of following Mudryk, another Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes unfollowed him, prompting Zinchenko to take action. Now that Manchester City is eight points behind them, the Gunners’ attention will shift to today’s north London derby at Tottenham.
