The heartwarming gesture stemmed from a casual comment made by Mudryk last October, when he jokingly remarked about the journalist’s phone potentially running out of storage space due to the numerous clips featuring the winger. True to his word, Mudryk presented the new phone to the reporter just before the current international break, highlighting a moment of genuine connection and compassion.

In October 2023, Mudryk was overheard saying, “You again? And again with the camera? How much capacity does your phone have?”

To which the reporter responded, “130 gb. The storage capacity is exhausted.”

Mudryk then quipped, “I’ll have to buy you a new phone because your storage is full of videos of me.”

Mudryk stayed true to his word, and upon encountering the same reporter recently, he surprised them with a brand-new cell phone.

Since his debut for the Ukrainian squad in 2022, Mudryk has emerged as a pivotal player, demonstrating his abilities with one goal and four assists in his appearances thus far. He played a crucial role in his team’s 2-1 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina on Thursday night and aims to continue delivering stellar performances when they take on Iceland next Tuesday in a UEFA Euro qualifier.

Mudryk is a man of his word and buys a new 📱 for reporter 😂👍
