On the night of December 17, it became known that the Ukrainian midfielder of the Chelsea and the national team of Ukraine, Mikhail Mudryk passed a positive doping test.
According to Tribuna.com, the doping test was conducted at the end of October, and the prohibited substance was detected in the sample. So far, the exact name of the drug is not disclosed.
"B" sample is currently expected , which should finally confirm or refute the test results. In case of confirmation of the positive result, the wise can be threatened with a disqualification of up to 4 years .
Mikhail Mudryk himself did not comment on the situation in public. In his Instagram, he closed the opportunity to leave comments under posts.
The last time, Mudryk came to the Chelsea application on December 1 for the English Premier League match against Aston Hilla . After that, he did not appear even in the application for four in a row of the team. On December 6, Chelsea, Enzo Maresska, reported that the Ukrainian was allegedly ill. However, there were now suspicions that the real cause of the wise man is the most positive doping test.
According to Ukrainian journalist Vladimir Zverov, the situation for the wise is very difficult.
