Frank Lampard has hailed Chelsea star Mykhailo Mudryk and revealed that he tried to sign the Ukraine international while he was managing Everton.
Mudryk, who has struggled since he joined the Blues for £88.5m in January, registered his first goal for the club in Monday’s 2-0 win at rivals Fulham.
The 22-year-old worked under Lampard last season when the Chelsea legend stepped in to replace Graham Potter as head coach on a short-term deal.
Speaking on Sky Sports before Chelsea’s victory at Craven Cottage – in which Mudryk scored – Lampard lauded the 22-year-old as he provided insight into his work in training and also said he attempted to bring him to Everton in 2022.
‘His pace is a huge strength as well as his technical ability when he is dribbling and finishing,’ Lampard said about Mudryk.
‘I used to take training, he is a compulsive finisher, in a positive way. He would stay out after training to shoot. He is a very good finisher.
‘We haven?t seen much of that in the Premier League but you have to say this young boy has only just moved [into a new league].
