Mykhailo Mudryk is facing a potential four-year ban from football after a failed doping test. The 23-year-old winger has been absent from the team since scoring in the Europa Conference League match against Heidenheim.


Reports from Ukraine first revealed the failed test, which was later confirmed by Chelsea. A second sample has been requested, and its results are still pending. Mudryk has vehemently denied knowingly taking any banned substances.

If the B sample also tests positive, Mudryk could face a lengthy absence from the pitch. Chelsea has released a statement confirming the Football Association's contact regarding the adverse finding in Mudryk's urine test.

The statement emphasizes the club's support for the FA's testing program and Mudryk's categorical denial of knowingly using banned substances. 

Both Chelsea and Mudryk will now work with the relevant authorities to determine the cause of the adverse finding.

Mudryk has also addressed the situation on social media, expressing his shock and stating that he has never knowingly used any banned substances or broken any rules. He is currently working with his team to investigate the cause of the positive test.
