"Mykhailo Mudryk has not played a competitive match since November 2024 after he failed a drugs test while on international duty with Ukraine and began a provisional suspension."
"Under the terms of any four-year ban he would not be eligible for selection again until December 2028, but if an appeal to Cas were successful then the 25-year-old could possibly return next year."
"It has been reported, however, that Mudryk has received the maximum possible suspension after traces of the drug meldonium, which can improve an individual's stamina, were found in his system."
"Under regulation 77 of the FA's anti-doping policy, a four-year ban results if the violation relates either to a non-specified substance, unless it can be established that the violation was not intentional."
Mykhailo Mudryk, a Chelsea forward, has appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport after receiving a four-year ban from the Football Association for using a banned substance. He has not played since November 2024 due to a failed drugs test while on international duty. If the appeal is successful, he could return to play as early as next year. The appeal was submitted in February, and the case details remain confidential. Mudryk reportedly tested positive for meldonium, a substance that enhances stamina, leading to the maximum suspension under FA regulations.
