Mudryk cleared to play after accepting doping breach

Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk, 25, is available to play immediately after accepting a Football Association anti-doping rule breach. The FA applied a suspension matching the one year and eight months he had already served — no further time away. He had not played since November 2024, when an adverse finding for meldonium triggered a provisional ban. He joins Chelsea's pre-season tour in Hong Kong.
