The Football Association, FA, on Wednesday imposed a four-year ban on Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk over anti-doping violations, the Daily Mail reports.
This is the maximum punishment for the breach.
Mudryk had decided to appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport, CAS.
The 25-year-old submitted his appeal on February 25. It is understood a hearing has yet to be scheduled.
Mudryk has not featured for the Blues since November 28, 2024.
The Ukraine international arrived at Stamford Bridge in a £88m move from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2023.
He is under contract until 2030.
