Leeds United in talks to sign Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk

Summary

Leeds United is pursuing a loan deal for Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk, who is eager for regular playing time. The 25-year-old has struggled to secure minutes at Stamford Bridge since joining from Shakhtar Donetsk in January 2023, partly due to stiff competition. As the transfer window nears its end, Leeds seeks to strengthen their attacking options and views Mudryk as a fitting addition. They face competition from various clubs for his services, with negotiations focusing on covering his substantial wages during the loan period. Leeds also considers signing Liam Delap from Manchester City.
