According to the British media Team Talk, the new lead of the Pablo Longoria-Medhi Benatia tandem is called Mykhailo Mudryk.
Chelsea’s Ukrainian firebrand is not in Blues manager Enzo Maresca’s plans this season, so a loan move could be on the cards this winter. And that’s where Marseille come in.
The connection with the Olympians would be obvious: the presence on the bench of Roberto De Zerbi, the man who contributed to the boy’s emergence at Shakhtar Donetsk.
As a reminder, Mykhailo Mudryk joined Chelsea in January 2023, for a fee of 80 million euros.
