Mudryk 'fails drugs test'

Mykhailo Mudryk is facing a ban of up to four years after allegedly failing a doping test, according to reports in Ukraine.

The Chelsea winger, 23, has not played for the Blues since scoring in the Europa Conference League match against Heidenheim and was last included in a match-day squad right at the start of this month against Aston Villa.

And reports in his native Ukraine claim that the reason behind his absence is a failed doping test. It's claimed that a second sample has since been requested, the result of which has yet to be determined. The supposed banned substance has not been disclosed.

Mudryk could potentially be banned for up to four years for doping, if his B sample also returns a positive reading, meaning the Chelsea star may be absent from the pitch for a significant period of time.

Kiwior wants out

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has been handed a signifcant headache regarding the future of Jakub Kiwior.

According to reports in Italy, the defender has asked his agents to find him a new club due to a lack of opportunities with Arsenal. Napoli are interested.

But it comes amid an ongoing defensive injury crisis at the Emirates so Arteta might well be keen to keep him in North London for the time being at least.

Man Utd set to axe Rashford

Marcus Rashford is reportedly in a battle to save his Manchester United future, with Ruben Amorim less than impressed.

The Red Devils forward was dropped from the squad for the weekend's clash with Manchester City. And he could continue to be left out should his efforts not increase.

According to Sky Sports, United would be willing to sell him should he not 'elevate' his standards. Alejandro Garnacho finds himself in a similar position but it is suggested that he still has credit in the bank.
