Arsenal signing Jorginho was a better deal than Chelsea buying Mykhailo Mudryk. Journalist Paul Brown believes that signing Jorginho was a smarter deal for the Gunners than buying Mykhailo Mudryk who was their target. Jorginho have already impressed the Gunners fans at the Emirates stadium since joining them. Whereas Mudryk is yet to do the same at Stamford Bridge. The player have failed to make a lasting impact at Stamford Bridge yet. The Italian have recently shared in his interview the real reason why he joined Arsenal. He said,
“I had spoken to Chelsea and I knew I was no longer part of their plans. I wanted to progress in my career and the Arsenal project suits me. It’s a young team that plays good football and fits my characteristics.”
His decision to join the Gunners is proving right so far.
Journalists believe Arsenal signing Jorginho is more impactful than Chelsea signing Mykhailo Mudryk
As per reports, Jorginho cost Arsenal about £12m. Which is much less than that of Mudryk, who was the Gunners’ target in the January transfer. Chelsea have reportedly paid £89m to Shakhtar Donetsk for the player. Journalist Paul Brown shares,
“I think it’s fair to say that, at the moment, Arsenal probably think they’ve had a bit of a lucky escape there not bringing him to the club. I’m sure Mudryk will get better with time.”
He further added,
“He needs a bit of time to settle and adapt to life here in a different country and a new league, but when you look at who Arsenal did sign, they signed Jorginho, and I can remember a lot of fans being mystified and upset with that. But if you look at how the two players have performed, I think it’s clear that Arsenal got the better of the deal there when it comes to those two signings.”
Jorginho have not taken long to show what he can do to the Gunners. He was already an experienced Premier League player at Chelsea. And therefore his experience comes in handy in the Arsenal dressing room. The Italian is definitely a smart signing for the Gunners. However, unlike Jorginho, Mudryk will take some time to settle in with his new club.
