During the January transfer window, the spectacular transfer of the Ukrainian international to Stamford Bridge for a potential €100 million transfer price was finalized.
Mudryk chose Chelsea despite several reports that he was interested in moving to Arsenal. The 22-year-old made it plain that he wanted to sign with the Gunners while also leaving numerous social media cues that suggested his true home was at the Emirates Stadium.
Chelsea's offer, though, completely outclassed Arsenal's to Shakhtar Donetsk. Since joining the Blues in the winter, Mudryk has appeared seven times, although he has only contributed one assist and no goals.
In an interview with Sky Sports conducted in advance of Ukraine's Euro 2024 qualifying match against England on Sunday, Oleksandr Zinchenko, an Arsenal player, said he has been assisting Mudryk in adjusting to life in London.
"He was a huge assistance to me. I adore this guy. We frequently make jokes about Chelsea, Arsenal, and the color of London "said Mudryk.
"But I like this man because he's so humorous and nice. We always make the most of our time together."
In response to a question about the color of London, Mudryk only stated, "Blue."
