    However, a return of just two assists in 16 games has seen his time at Stamford Bridge slapped with a need to improve mark.
    And with Chelsea’s miserable season now just two games away from being finished, Mudryk took to Instagram to hint at his unhappiness with his post-world cup season.
    He posted a picture alongside Ukraine Under-21 star Maksym Taloverov with the caption: “I miss the time when we were happy like this.”
    The post could also, however, be a reference to the ongoing war in his homeland, with 15 months now having passed since Vladimir Putin ordered the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

    “I was shocked because I haven’t done anything wrong. I would understand if I was sitting there in a bikini or whatever but that definitely wasn’t the case.
    “I was just getting my make-up done and answering questions, nothing like what they are thinking I have done.
    “It is just so frustrating because I was just sitting there in a T-shirt and I could understand it if I was exposed but I was literally completely covered.”
