Mykhailo Mudrick (23) of Chelsea in the English Premier League (EPL), who is suspected of taking banned drugs, broke his long silence and appealed for his injustice. It is claimed that he has never taken a banned substance and that there was an error in his doping test.
British media Daily Star reported on the 17th (Korea time) that Chelsea star Mudryk, who failed the doping test, broke his silence and insisted on his innocence. The announcement came a day after the shocking suspicion of taking banned drugs.
Mudryk, who Chelsea hired in January last year for a whopping 100 million euros (about 150.9 billion won), tested positive in the doping test. According to another British media Tribune, a doping test sample submitted by Mudrick in October detected a banned substance.

If Mudryk's use of banned drugs turns out to be true, it could be the `worst drug scandal.' Mudryk could remain a 'black history' of Chelsea's recruitment. Chelsea brought in Mudryk for a whopping €100 million, but they didn't benefit at all.
Mudryk, a former member of Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine, has fast feet enough to rank No. 1 in speed among players in the UEFA Champions League. It was expected to be a vitality for the attack with this. This is why Chelsea paid 100 million euros and brought Mudryk after competing with Arsenal.

Again this season, he was relegated to the bench. In this situation, there were even suspicions of taking banned drugs.
If it turns out to be true, it could be huge damage to Chelsea as well as Mudrick.
However, Mudryk was informed on social media that the doping samples provided to 'FA contained banned substances. But I have never deliberately used prohibited drugs or broken the rules. We are working closely with the club to see how this happened.'
Chelsea also issued a statement. Chelsea said, `Recently, we were contacted after abnormal findings were found about Mudryk in a doping test conducted regularly by the FA." Both players and clubs will fully support the FA's inspection program.' It seems that they are expecting to be cleared of charges in the re-examination results.
