Volodymyr Prokhvatilo, President of the Krasnohrad Sports School, recalled Mykhailo Mudryk's first steps in football.
- At the age of seven, his parents brought him to a sports school where he started playing football under the guidance of Mikhail Merkulov. Since childhood, he was a very fast, restless boy who always played as a striker, loved to score goals and was very hardworking. It happened in different ways: when he managed to demonstrate something, when he didn't, but Mudryk was always focused on scoring a goal," said Prokhvatilo.
