Mykhailo Mudryk faces seven-year ban<\/a><\/p>\nHe said,<\/p>\n
“I have spoken to Mudryk many times since this doping issue arose. He doesn\u2019t understand how it could have happened. He has no clue. No idea at all. So his lawyers organised for him to take a lie detector test, which he passed. It will form part of the evidence showing he didn\u2019t intentionally do anything wrong. Mudryk has been clear, it\u2019s not his fault that he tested positive. We now need to find out how this has happened, and who did this. His lawyers are trying to find out.”<\/p>\n
What did Chelsea say about the Mykhailo Mudryk doping scandal?<\/h3>\n
The Blues released a statement on its official website when the doping incident broke out about the midfielder.<\/p>\n
“Chelsea Football Club can confirm the Football Association recently contacted our player Mykhailo Mudryk concerning an adverse finding in a routine urine test. Both the club and Mykhailo fully support The FA\u2019s testing programme and all our players, including Mykhailo, are regularly tested. Mykhailo has confirmed categorically that he has never knowingly used any banned substances. Both Mykhailo and the club will now work with the relevant authorities to establish what has caused the adverse finding. The club will not be commenting any further.”<\/p>\n
What did Mykhailo Mudryk say about his doping scandal?<\/h3>\n
He said,<\/p>\n
“This has come as a complete shock as I have never knowingly used any banned substances or broken any rules, and am working closely with my team to investigate how this could have happened. I know that I have not done anything wrong and remain hopeful that I will be back on the pitch soon. I cannot say any more now due to the confidentiality of the process, but I will as soon as I can.\u201d<\/p>\n
The absence of Mudryk has not been felt by the club as he has failed to make the impact expected of him at the Blues after moving to Stamford Bridge from Shakhtar Donetsk for \u00a389m in January 2023. He has contributed just five goals and four assists in 53 league appearances for the Blues.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
