Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk has been cleared to return to the pitch with immediate effect, after sitting out almost two years since a positive doping test.
Mudryk last played for Chelsea in November of 2024. A urine sample in the month prior was later revealed to contain a “low concentration” of a banned substance. The substance in question—meldonium—was added to the prohibited list by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) in 2016. It is not a performance enhancer but can boost endurance and aid recovery.
