Chelsea are planning a move to hijack Arsenal’s pursuit of Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk.
With Chelsea struggling to score goals in the Premier League this season, Todd Boehly could try to bring in attacking reinforcements during the January transfer window.
The signings of Raheem Sterling and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang have been disappointing, so Chelsea could look to refresh their attack in the coming weeks.
Now, according to Calciomercato, Chelsea are looking to hijack Arsenal’s move to sign winger Mudryk from Shakhtar Donetsk.
Mudryk has burst onto the scene in recent months with excellent performances for Shakhtar in Europe and Ukraine.

His breakneck pace on the counter-attack makes him a nightmare for defenders, so it’s no surprise to see two of England’s biggest clubs showing interest.
With Arsenal at the top of the Premier League, Mudryk may find it difficult to break into the starting XI initially, so a move to Chelsea could be a more attractive prospect for Mudryk.
Players like Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech along with their new signings have not shown consistent form, so a place on the wing could be at stake.
