​Brentford in talks with Shakhtar Donestk over Ukrainian winger Mudryk

Brentford are in talks over a deal for Shakhtar Donetsk winger Mykhaylo Mudryk.

The 21-year-old was a key target for the Premier League club in the January transfer window.

However, they were unable to agree a fee with Shakhtar, who were seeking more than £20 million.

According to Sky Sports, Mudryk is set to leave the Ukrainian team, as a result of Russia's invasion of the nation.

Shakhtar are open to selling their prized assets, and they are hoping they can agree a fee with Brentford for Mudryk for a summer transfer.

The youngster is playing for Shakhtar during their "World Tour For Peace" set of friendlies, and played against Olympiakos over the weekend.
