The 22-year-old is at Stamford Bridge this afternoon in a VIP box to watch the Blues take on Crystal Palace as Graham Potter's side look to end their dismal run.
Chelsea's official Instagram account had already added Mudryk's username to their bio, while Shakhtar also toyed with fans by posting a cryptic tweet.
But the deal was finally announced this afternoon after he completed a medical.
Now Fabrizio Romano has claimed that he will wear the No.15 shirt for his new club.
And a photo of the actual Chelsea jersey has been shared by Igor Tsyganyk which shows Mudryk’s name and new number on the back.
Arsenal had hoped to sign Mudryk but had two bids rejected by the Ukrainian side.
Mudryk was aware of their interest and dropped several hints that he wanted a move to The Emirates.
The 22-year-old even shared a 'prayer' emoji while Arsenal were believed to be preparing a third bid.

That came after Mudryk shared photos of himself watching Arsenal take on West Ham and Brighton and called Mikel Arteta a "great manager".
But Chelsea hijacked the deal and Mudryk is now officially part of Potter's ever-expanding squad.
However, not all Blues fans are happy with that development.
