Pochettino unhappy with underperforming 23-year-old Chelsea ace

Chelsea paid a substantial amount of money when they signed Mykhailo Mudryk last year.

The 23-year-old has struggled to hold down a regular starting spot at the Premier League club and a report from Football Insider claims that Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino and his coaches are unimpressed with his development.

The 23-year-old Chelsea winger has been quite underwhelming with his performances since the £88.5 million move to Stamford Bridge. It will be interesting to see if the Blues decide to cash in on him at the end of the season.

Mudryk has a contract with the Blues until the summer of 2031 and they would have to accept a massive loss on him if they want to sell him. It is highly unlikely that any club would be willing to pay a premium for him in the summer.

His performances will need to improve drastically in order for him to start at a top Premier League club regularly. The player was linked with a move to Arsenal before he joined Chelsea and the Gunners might feel that they have dodged a bullet.

Chelsea have been quite mediocre going forward and they have had to depend on Cole Palmer to score goals. They need quality wingers and a striker in the summer. It remains to be seen whether they decide to cut their losses on the Ukrainian winger and invest the proceeds from his departure into a new signing.

Mudryk will want to prove himself in the Premier League and he will hope that Chelsea can give him more opportunities in the coming months. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.

Chelsea could be under pressure to sell Mudryk

Chelsea are currently 9^th in the league table and they are likely to miss out on European qualification. They might need to sell players in the summer in order to fund new signings.
