The club released a statement emphasizing their commitment to the FA’s testing programme and expressed support for Mudryk.
“Both the club and Mykhailo fully support the FA’s testing programme, and all our players, including Mykhailo, are regularly tested. Mykhailo has categorically confirmed that he has never knowingly used any banned substances. We will now work with the relevant authorities to determine the cause of this adverse finding.”
Mudryk also addressed the situation on Instagram, stating:
“I can confirm that I have been notified that a sample I provided to the FA contained a banned substance.”
