Chelsea boss Graham Potter has been holding one-on-one talks with Mykhaylo Mudryk.

Mudryk made a bright start to his Blues career when he caused Liverpool all kinds of problems in the 0-0 draw at Anfield back in January.

But since then, the jet-heeled winger has been forced to watch on from the sidelines after failing to impress in starts against Fulham and West Ham.

Nonetheless, Chelsea reporter Simon Phillips says Potter has been in talks with Mudryk behind the scenes to explain why he has not been featuring for the Blues.

There is optimism that while it is unlikely to deter Mudryk from feeling frustrated about his lack of game time, it will provide some context to Potter's decision-making.

Furthermore, it's a process that helped Marc Cucurella flourish on Tuesday night as Chelsea reached the Champions League quarter-finals with a 2-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund.
