Shakhtar Donetsk’s CEO has advised Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino on how to get the best out of Mykhailo Mudryk.
However, Shakhtar CEO, Sergiy Palkin, claimed that having seen the Ukrainian youngster from close quarters, he knew exactly how to get the best out of the winger. He still believes he is a “unique talent”.
Also, he advised Blues boss, Pochettino, to spend more one-on-one time with Mudryk, which will help him to perform better.
Most Talented Player
Speaking to beIN SPORTS, Palkin said: “I can tell you that, for me, Mudryk is the most talented and unique player in the world.
“I believe that in order to get the maximum from Mudryk, as they anticipate, you need to invest in him.
“And these investments are not money.
“The investment is time with the coaching staff to communicate with him and to work closely with him.
“He is a young boy and he changed from the Ukrainian Championship for the English Premier League.
“It’s a completely different world, with completely different levels, with football that’s completely different.
“I believe that if the coaching staff dedicates some time to him, he will return three, four or five times more”.

However, since moving to England from Ukraine in January 2023 for a huge £89m ($109m) transfer fee, the 23-year-old has failed to live up to the standards that he had set while playing for Shakhtar, where he scored 12 goals and provided 17 assists in 44 appearances.
Also, in his first six months with the west London club, Mudryk failed to score even a single goal, and in the 2023-24 season, he has netted only three times in 19 Premier League matches.
