De Zerbi Will Have to Wait Until Summer for Mudryk
Marseille will not pursue a move for Mykhailo Mudryk this winter but remains interested and plans to revisit the transfer in the summer, according to Onlymercato.
Former Shakhtar Donetsk coach Roberto De Zerbi, now managing Marseille, is reportedly eager to reunite with Mudryk, with whom he shared a productive partnership during their time in Ukraine. However, an initial inquiry regarding the Ukrainian winger ended with a firm response from Chelsea: the London club has no plans to sell or loan Mudryk during the winter transfer window. Any negotiations will only be entertained in the summer, effectively delaying Marseille’s pursuit.
For now, Mudryk remains an integral part of Chelsea’s squad depth. The winger has made his mark in the Europa Conference League, scoring three goals, but has yet to find similar opportunities or success in the Premier League, where his playing time has been limited and he has yet to score.
