Furthermore, Akhmetov said he was “happy for Mykhaylo and proud of him” for landing the move to Chelsea.
He said he is absolutely confident that entire Europe will acclaim Mykhaylo’s brilliant and fine play.
Whilst celebrating Mudryk, Akhmetov also regretted that players like Mudryk can’t be invited to the Ukrainian championship and win European trophies as Ukraine is still fighting the horrendous and unjust war waged against by the Russian Federation.
Meanwhile, he still expresses confidence that Ukraine will win the match.
He also added that Shakthar would play a friendly against Chelsea at the Donbas arena in Ukraine in the future.
Mudryk joined Chelsea on an eight-and-a-half-year contract last weekend.
