Chelsea’s Mykhailo Mudryk, once a top target for Arsenal, is cleared to return after a four-year doping ban — but not because he was exonerated. The FA shortened his suspension due to updated anti-doping rules that would’ve exempted him from punishment if tested today. Though he admitted to the violation, the governing body deemed his time served sufficient. At just 25, Mudryk, who scored 10 goals in 73 games before his ban, still has five years left on his 2023 contract. Meanwhile, Arsenal’s decision to sign Leandro Trossard instead — who later won the Premier League and moved to Besiktas — now looks like a smarter move.
