Mykhailo Mudryk spotted training at shock English club as Chelsea star teases return

Mykhailo Mudryk has been seen training at an English club amid the ongoing silence surrounding his future.

Back in January 2023, Mudryk, 25, joined Chelsea from Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk in a deal that could end up costing £89 million.

Since then, he has scored 10 goals in 73 matches for the Stamford Bridge club.

Mudryk last played for the Blues back in November 2024, but has since been provisionally suspended from football by the FA after being charged with an alleged doping offence.

At the time, Mudryk denied any wrongdoing. He stated: "I can confirm that I have been notified that a sample I provided to The FA contained a banned substance.

"This has come as a complete shock, as I have never knowingly used any banned substances or broken any rules, and am working closely with my team to investigate how this could have happened.

"I know that I have not done anything wrong and remain hopeful that I will be back on the pitch soon. I cannot say any more now due to the confidentiality of the process, but I will as soon as I can."

Currently, there has been no clarification on when a decision will be made on Mudryk's case.

As per the Daily Mail, the 25-year-old was seen training at semi-professional club Uxbridge FC.

Taking to the social media platform Instagram, Mudryk posted a video of himself placing a left-footed shot into the top corner at the club's Honeycroft ground.

The Ukrainian faked a shot on his right foot before unleashing a brilliant effort on his left.

As per journalist Ben Jacobs, Mudryk is not training with Uxbridge FC, he has just simply rented the club's facilities to do his own thing.

He wrote: "Understand Mykhailo Mudryk is not training with Uxbridge FC. He has simply rented their 3G surface separate from both the non-league club and Chelsea.

"This has been booked via Mudryk’s own team. Nothing has been organised by Chelsea or could be under the terms of his ban."

Back in November, World Anti-Doping Agency president Witold Banka said: "First of all, we are waiting for a disciplinary decision in his case (from the English FA). As of today, we do not know when it will come. Then, according to the anti-doping code, we will request the player's documentation and will decide whether we agree with this disciplinary decision.

"We can appeal in two cases: if we consider the decision too harsh or too lenient."
