Manchester United are reportedly considering a surprising summer transfer move for Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk, a decision that could spark debate among the Red Devils’ fanbase.
According to a report by Todo Fichajes, United are prepared to offer between €40-50 million for the Ukrainian international as part of manager Ruben Amorim’s efforts to revamp the team’s attacking options. Amorim, who recently took charge at Old Trafford, has already made significant changes by loaning out Marcus Rashford to Aston Villa and Antony to Real Betis, with both players unlikely to return.
Mudryk’s potential signing represents a gamble for United, but the 24-year-old’s undeniable talent during his time at Shakhtar Donetsk makes him an intriguing prospect. While his struggles at Chelsea have raised doubts, Amorim’s ability to maximize potential could be the key to unlocking Mudryk’s best form.

Despite Mudryk’s underwhelming performances at Chelsea, his earlier promise at Shakhtar Donetsk suggests he could still flourish under the right guidance. Manchester United’s current lack of quality in attack makes him a potentially valuable addition if Amorim can help him rediscover his form.
Amorim’s success at Sporting Lisbon without relying on high-profile names highlights his ability to develop players, which could bode well for Mudryk’s potential resurgence. Chelsea, eager to offload the winger after his struggles, may see this as an opportunity for a mutually beneficial deal, allowing United to secure a talented player at a reasonable price.
Amorim’s track record of developing players at Sporting Lisbon suggests he could be the ideal coach to help Mudryk regain his confidence and form. Chelsea’s willingness to part ways with the winger presents an opportunity for United to make a shrewd signing that could strengthen their attacking options.
While Mudryk remains a priority for now, it remains to be seen if other clubs will enter the race for his signature or if United will shift their focus to alternative targets in the coming months.
