“Mykhailo Mudryk will represent Chelsea this year with the number 15. The forward will be introduced to the Stamford Bridge crowd during halftime of our Premier League match against Crystal Palace after signing an eight-and-a-half-year contract with the Blues from Shakhtar Donetsk.
“Mudryk, who can play either as a forward or in a wide position, has chosen to wear the number 15 shirt for the rest of the season and hopes to make his Chelsea debut against Liverpool next weekend.
The 22-year-old attacker, who previously wore No. 10, is a skilled player with lots of speeds. In one-on-one matches, Mudryk has swiftly established a reputation as one of Europe’s most dangerous attacking players.
He has played both wings for Shakhtar Donetsk and is primarily a wide winger, but many of his best performances have come when cutting in from the left into his preferred right foot.
