Mudryk’s comments followed those made by Shakhtar’s director of football Darijo Srna and chief executive Sergei Palkin. “If somebody wants to buy Mudryk, they must pay huge, huge, huge mone 欧冠竞猜平台 y,” Srna told The Athletic.
“They understand the story behind him and they understand that he is quite an expensive player. But they start to feel our club, what our strategy is, what we should do. In any case, the time will arrive. Definitely, it will arrive a big club and give us €100m.”

Srna went on to suggest the transfer market had been inflated by Antony’s £85m move to Manchester United and Jack Grealish’s £100m switch to Manchester City.
Yet it appears Arsenal will have to break the bank to sign Mudryk. Shakhtar’s demand has left the player devastated, as he believes it will derail his hopes of a move. “When I found out about my price, I wasn’t just surprised – I was shocked,” Mudryk told Sport Arena.
“But I am 100 per cent sure that they are unlikely to buy a player from the championship of Ukraine for 100 million… I will not hide that I was very upset. The amount of 100 million puts a barrier for my transition to the top c 欧冠竞彩官方 hampionship, which I so dreamed of. I can’t say that my dream was killed, but wounded – that’s for sure.”
As well as Arsenal, it’s believed Newcastle, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain are keeping tabs on Mudryk. Brentford were also in talks to sign the player at the beginning of 2022 but a move never materialised and his stock has risen considerably since.
“I have a long-term contract with Shakhtar [set to expire in December 2026], I give all my strength and energy so that Shakhtar achieves maximum results… but every football player has a dream to play in a top club and in a top championship – I am no exception.
Mykhaylo Mudryk believes it’s unlikely a top European club would pay €100million (£87m) for a player from Ukraine – leaving his Premier League dream hanging in the balance.
Mudryk’s employers Shakhtar Donetsk have slapped a €100m price tag on him after his impressive start to the season. The Ukraine international, 21, has scored eight goals – including three in the Champions League – and provided eight assists in 16 games.

The winger’s form has attracted the likes of Arsenal. It’s believed the Gunners are considering signing Mudryk in January to bolster their chances of winning the Premier League title. They are currently five points clear of Manchester City at the top of the table.
“Otherwise the president of the club [Rinat Akhmetov] will not sell him. All the clubs must respect the President, respect Shakhtar and in the end they must respect Mykhaylo Mudryk, who is one of the best players I saw. The price is so big.”
Palkin added: “Alwa 欧冠竞彩推荐 ys it [interest in Mudryk] is a permanent process. Every week, some club appears and starts to feel [where we are]. They’re not coming and saying ‘OK, take 50 million and give me Mudryk’.
