Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Georgiy Sudakov has been linked with a move to the Premier League in recent months.
According to a report from i news, Chelsea have joined the race to sign 22-year-old Shakhtar Donetsk playmaker Georgiy Sudakov, and they will compete with Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham.
The 22-year-old is highly rated across Europe, and he has a bright future ahead of himself. The Ukrainian international could develop into a quality player with the right guidance, and Chelsea could use someone like him.
He is capable of operating as an attacking midfielder as well as a winger. He will help create goalscoring opportunities for his teammates with his technical ability, passing, vision and flair. Chelsea need to improve their attacking unit and Sudakov would be an excellent long-term acquisition.
The Blues will be hoping to challenge for major trophies in the coming seasons, and they need to sign top-class players for that to happen. Chelsea must look to secure Champions League qualification if they want to attract talented young players like Sudakov. They have made a decent start to the season, and it remains to be seen whether they can finish the season strongly.
Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham keen on Sudakov
Arsenal could use more quality and depth in the attacking midfield department as well. The Gunners have been overly dependent on Martin Odegaard, and they need more depth in that area.
Meanwhile, Jack Grealish has not been able to live up to the expectations at Manchester City, and the Premier League champions might need to bring in alternatives. The 22-year-old playmaker seems like the ideal fit. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with the player as well, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to invest in the playmaker in the coming months. Although Spurs have James Maddison at their disposal, they need more competition for places. Maddison has been quite inconsistent and Sudakov could push him for the starting spot.
Having two quality attacking midfielders in the side will help Tottenham improve, and the competition for places will bring out the best in the players as well. The opportunity to move to the Premier League will be quite exciting for the 22-year-old, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
