Chelsea’s Mudryk cleared to play

LONDON (AP): Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk has been cleared to play after the English Football Association and the World Anti-Doping Agency resolved his doping case. Mudryk, one of the most expensive players in world football, hasn’t played since late 2024. He failed a drug test while on international duty for Ukraine. The test revealed an “adverse finding” of the prohibited substance meldonium.
