Traveler. How Mudryk is spending time after suspension for failed doping test?
A week has passed since the official announcement of Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk’s failed doping test. The Ukrainian has been barred even from training with the team, leaving him with plenty of free time. So, how is he using it?
Details: Over the weekend, Mudryk visited Riyadh, where his compatriot Oleksandr Usyk secured a second victory over Tyson Fury. By Monday, he had travelled to Lisbon with his personal trainer, Dmytro Chapovskyi.
In Lisbon, Mudryk visited his former Shakhtar Donetsk teammate and current national team colleague Anatoliy Trubin, who now plays for Benfica. Mudryk was present for Benfica’s league match against Estoril.

Reminder: According to media reports, Mudryk’s doping test revealed the presence of the banned substance meldonium. The case is currently under investigation.
