Liverpool will have been heartened by the news that Mykhaylo Mudryk would consider a move to the English top flight, should such an opportunity arise.
The Reds have been linked with the left winger (described by some as the Ukrainian Neymar) who has enjoyed a strong start to the 2022/23 campaign with a comeback of five goal contributions in as many games in all competitions (four of which comes in the Champions League).
“Yes, yes, it is possible,” the Ukrainian told the Times (El Eco). “The Premier League is the best league in the world and everyone wants to play in this league.”
Jurgen Klopp is already blessed with an excellent option on the left flank in the form of exciting Colombian international Luis Diaz.

However, we shouldn’t be too quick to rule out the possibility of the club adding more depth to their ranks after the departures of Divock Origi, Taki Minamino and Sadio Mane in the summer window.
Certainly, as it is, wing points possess the least depth of positions available on our forward three.
With only a four-year gap between Mudryk and our No. 23, he may not fit perfectly into the plans our recruiting team has for the future of the forward line, particularly as Diaz is likely to reach his prime years for the club before the time the former turns 25.
Still, a high talent ceiling could prove to be the most compelling factor as we reportedly keep an eye on the 21-year-old’s progress in Ukraine.
