Bad news for Mykhailo MudrykUkrainian talent of Chelsea born in 2001. The former Shakhtar Donetsk striker tested positive in an anti-doping test carried out by Football Association in the past months. The indiscretion was launched by a Kiev newspaper, before being officially confirmed by the English club and by Mudryk himself through a press release and a post published on Instagram. The banned substance found in the analysis of the outsider has not yet been disclosed. The player, meanwhile, has been provisionally suspended by the FA. Now, therefore, there is a risk of a very long stop which could reach up to 4 years and which would clearly have enormous consequences on the Ukrainian’s career.
