He is yet to score or assist in his three appearances for the club and was hauled off at half-time in their 0-0 draw with Fulham at the begininng of February, although Potter claimed the winger had been suffering from a heavy cold.
Potter has called for patience as Mudryk adapts to his new surroundings, having gone six weeks without playing a competitive match before signing for Chelsea.
‘We didn’t want to take a chance with him,” he said after the game. “He’s still in a process where we’re building up his minutes because of the break that he’s been on in Ukraine. So that was the decision there.’
