Can Mykhailo Moodleek get out of doping charges. He even mobilized a lie-tamper to reveal his innocence.
Britain's The Sun reported on the 23rd (Korea time) that Mudryk, who was expelled from Chelsea, passed the lie test to restore his honor.
The Sun says 'Mudrik passed a lie detector test to escape his charges. He is being suspended awaiting the results of further tests on samples that have tested positive for prohibited drugs. Mudryk has no excuse for taking banned substances and could be banned for up to four years. He disappeared from public view after the news broke and has not been seen at the Chelsea training ground in the past few months.

Mudryk was once one of the young talents representing Ukraine. Shakhtar Donetsk received a lot of attention for his tremendous performance and moved to Chelsea through the winter transfer window in January 2023. At that time, it recorded a huge transfer fee of 100 million euros (about 150 billion won). From Shakhtar's days to powerful dribbles, powerful shots through tremendous speed, and movements after passing, he was highly evaluated in various areas, and his play style was compared with Son Heung-min after joining the English Premier League (EPL).
However, after moving to Chelsea, expectations for Moody's have been dampened. Only the shortcomings were noticeable, and the performance was minimal. He lacked competitive ability, destructive power through breakthrough, and attack deployment using shooting were both insufficient. In 17 games in the first season, he played only two assists, and the previous 2023-2024 season fell far short of expectations with seven goals and two assists in 41 games. This season, he scored three goals and four assists in 15 games, but three goals and three assists were accumulated in the Europa Conference League, not the league.

This season's big problem has been revealed. It was the doping controversy. British public broadcaster BBC reported in December last year that it was "completely shocked" after Mykhailo Mudryk tested positive for a banned substance and that Mudryk had been confirmed to have tested positive for a banned substance, which the player vehemently denied using. Chelsea said it would try to determine the positive cause. If he is found to have intentionally taken the drug, he could be suspended for up to four years'
At the time, Mudryk "I confirmed that I had been informed that the sample contained prohibited substances. I was completely shocked because I never used such a substance intentionally, nor did I break the rules. We are working closely with the team to investigate. I know I didn't do anything wrong, and I'm hopeful that I can come back. I can't say more because of the secrecy, but I'll tell you everything as soon as I can", but he has yet to play after the game on December 1 last year.

Moodrique seems to have recently conducted a test using a lie detector to escape the doping charges. Sergei Falkin, CEO of Mudryk's former team Shakhtar, said in an interview that `The lawyers helping him took measures to get him to get a polygraph test, and fortunately, he passed the test. I think this prosecutor will be part of the evidence to support his claim that he was not intentionally doped." The evidence is expected to be used to judge the results of additional tests and appeal disciplinary measures.
Attention is also focusing on whether Ukraine's top prospect, once highly anticipated, will be able to enjoy the EPL stage again after escaping from doping charges.
