Chelsea all but confirm arrival of Mykhailo Mudryk in an £88m deal - but bizarrely tag him on their Instagram page, ask fans to 'show him some love' and release a statement on the move before it's officially complete!

Chelsea have all but confirmed the arrival ofShakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhailo Mudryk after posting a series of bizarre cryptic messages on their social media channels before the move is confirmed.

The London-based side have made a conscious effort to hijack Arsenal's mega-money move for the winger in recent days, and seem to be on the cusp of confirming his arrival in a whopping £88million deal.

Shakhtar have also been involved in the teasing of the news, sharing photos of the 22-year-old being given a farewell by his team-mates and tweeting that the club are 'very close' to agreeing a deal for him to leave.
