Out of nowhere, it seems that Pedro Neto has agreed to a move away from Chelsea, potentially forcing Xabi Alonso into a position change for Mykhailo Mudryk.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It has been reported that Neto has agreed personal terms with Al Hilal<\/a> for a move away from Stamford Bridge<\/a>, with the Blues previously open to his sale at the right price.<\/p>\n

\n

Many believed there would be a new-look future for the Portugal international under Alonso<\/a> in the wing-back position, following his use there during pre-season.<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s your DREAM Enzo Fernandez replacement if the Argentine leaves Chelsea? \ud83e\udd29<\/h3>\n

Mykhailo Mudryk could move to wing-back if Chelsea sell Pedro Neto<\/h2>\n

The work-rate required as well as attacking quality to play that role looked perfect for Neto, but now could be a new way into the first team squad for Mykhailo Mudryk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After nearly two years on the sidelines, the Chelsea players have been impressed with the fitness levels shown by the Ukraine international.<\/p>\n

He explained to the Chelsea website<\/a> that he has been working hard to prove himself after not being allowed to play for 20 months.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI\u2019d say it was like a pre-season for 18 months, so I\u2019ve been training, I\u2019ve been training hard. I didn\u2019t give up and I just tried to work as hard as I could.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was working six days a week with proper recovery, with proper sleep schedule, food, everything. Everything was the same, just double sessions per day.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was to come back and to show myself again in the football world. That was my mission and I knew what I had to do for that. Only through hard work can you reach something.\u201d<\/p>\n

MIKEL IS RIGHT: Mudryk needs a loan, but which club suits him best? \ud83e\udd14<\/h3>\n

Misha wants to join a Premier League club.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Playing at wing-back is going to take a significant amount of fitness for whoever plays the role, likely behind the reason why they have added to their squad with Marco Palestra<\/a> and Pep Chavarria<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Morgan Rogers and Cole Palmer are expected to play in the attacking areas, with both liking to come inside and get on the ball wherever possible.<\/p>\n

This will need an attacking outlet to be happy to hug the touchline, with Mudryk suiting this role perfectly due to his electric pace.<\/p>\n

Neto looked to be a perfect fit for the role, however Mudryk can provide an answer no one thought was possible at the end of last season.<\/p>\n
