The head coach of the youth national team of Ukraine U-19, Serhiy Nagornyak, commented on the transfer of Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Mykhailo Mudryk to London Chelsea.
"This transfer is historic for our football, the Ukrainian player moved to one of the best clubs of the Premier League. Although I got the impression that he wanted to go to Arsenal. Now the main thing for him is to endure psychologically.
When I talk about psychology, I don't mean that Mudryk wanted to join Arsenal, but moved to Chelsea. I am talking about the transfer amount of 100 million. It is necessary that he should not be under pressure that he was paid insane amounts of money.
If you compare "Chelsea" and "Arsenal" right now, the "blues" are in crisis, and the "gunners" are showing a very high-quality game. From the point of view of professional development, Mudryk's transfer to "Arsenal" would be the best option, in my opinion. But it happened as it happened.
On the other hand, when I watched Chelsea play Crystal Palace, many players were unknown to me. Currently, there are many injured in the team, so Mudryk has a chance to prove himself and establish himself in the starting lineup.
The most important quality of Mudryk is that he does not love, but adores football. If some players had to be forced to work, then I, as well as other coaches, had to restrain Mykhailo. He has grown up and we are seeing the result. Well, the main yrnr game quality is speed. We do not have a player in the championship who has such a technique of possession of the ball at speed.
I believe that the Wise One will show himself. He will pass and score for Chelsea. I think he was preparing for a move to a top club. But to predict something, you need to see a few of his games in the new team," said Nagorniak.
