Shakhtar were publicly demanding around £87million (€100m) for Mudryk. However, they privately would accept a lower fee with add-ons.
Mudryk has perhaps played a part in his asking price being decreased. In November, he admitted he was taken back to hear of how much Shakhtar were asking for him.
He told Sport Arena: “When I found out about my price, I wasn’t just surprised – I was shocked. I have a long-term contract with Shakhtar, I give all my strength and energy so that Shakhtar achieves maximum results… but every football player has a dream to play in a top club and in a top championship – I am no exception.
“But I am 100 per cent sure that they are unlikely to buy a player from the championship of Ukraine for €100m. I will not hide that I was very upset. The amount of 100 million puts a barrier for my transition to the top championship, which I so dreamed of.”
