Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk ‘fails drugs test’ and faces lengthy ban

According to reports in Ukraine, a sample provided by the winger in October has tested positive for a banned substance

Mykhailo Mudryk has reportedly failed a drugs test that could result in a long ban for the Chelsea winger.

Contacted by Telegraph Sport, Mudryk’s representatives have not commented on a report in his native Ukraine that alleged an ‘A’ sample taken in October was found to be positive for doping.

The report adds that Mudryk is still waiting on the result of a ‘B’ sample and whether or not it confirms the findings of his ‘A’ sample.

Murdryk, who joined Chelsea almost two years ago in a deal worth an initial £62 million, could face a lengthy ban if the report in Ukraine is confirmed.

Paul Pogba had a four-year ban for doping reduced to 18 months and subsequently terminated his contract at Juventus.
