EPL: Mudryk agent blundered choosing Chelsea over Arsenal, says Gallas

William Gallas has said Mykhaylo Mudryk should never have joined Chelsea in January.

Mudryk also had an offer from Arsenal, but chose Chelsea as he was leaving Shakhtar Donetsk.

“Last season I said Mudryk was going to regret signing for Chelsea because I thought Arsenal was the club for him to express himself. I don’t know if it was his choice, the choice of his agent to go to Chelsea, or maybe Shahktar’s choice,” Gallas, who played for both clubs, told Gambling Zone.

“I saw him at the beginning of the season and he was looking good, and I thought he was going to have a great season but I don’t know what has happened, why he is always on the bench and why he doesn’t get the opportunities.

“I feel sad for the players when they are in that situation. Right now, if you are talking about Mudryk, his agent didn’t take the right decision in bringing him to Chelsea. Most of the players who joined Chelsea were ready to play and if it was difficult at the beginning they adapted very well.

“That shows you the people who were working to bring players knew what they were doing. Right now it is a bit different.”
