Around this time last year, rumors of Mykhailo Mudryk joining Arsenal were in full swing.
In a shocking turn of events, Chelsea secured the Ukrainian player in a sensational £88.5 million move in January, putting an end to the transfer saga.
However, Mudryk struggled to meet the high expectations during his initial months at Stamford Bridge, managing just one goal in his first 25 appearances for the club.
On Saturday, the 22-year-old faced the club he nearly signed with in January, demonstrating what Arsenal could have had with a remarkable goal early in the second half. From the left flank, he noticed Arsenal’s goalkeeper, David Raya, out of position and skillfully found the net, giving his team a 2-0 advantage.
Some may claim it was an accidental cross, but Mudryk insists he intended it, and who are we to doubt him?
