Mykhailo Mudryk’s failed doping test has sparked wider concerns among Chelsea fans, with attention now turning to midfielder Enzo Fernandez, who recently began training with Mudryk’s personal coach, Dmytro Chapovskyi.

The 23-year-old Ukrainian winger tested positive for a banned substance in his ‘A’ sample, taken at the end of October, and now faces the risk of a significant football ban. While investigations are ongoing and the ‘B’ sample result is pending, fans are increasingly worried about Fernandez’s involvement with the same trainer.

It was revealed last week that Fernandez had started working with Chapovskyi to improve his physical condition. A photo of the Chelsea star with Mudryk’s coach was even shared on Chapovskyi’s Instagram page, raising further speculation among supporters.

Reacting to the situation, Chelsea fans expressed their anxiety on social media.

One fan said: “They are saying Enzo Fernandez has Mudryk’s personal coach, we might be cooked.”

Another fan pointed to Fernandez’s sudden rise in form: “Enzo got Mudryk’s coach and got 8G/A in the last few games…”

A third added: “Apparently Mudryk tested positive for doping, and Enzo has recently started using the same personal trainer as him. There is never a quiet moment in this club.”

Fernandez’s recent performances have been outstanding, with his contributions helping Chelsea during a crucial phase of the season. However, with Mudryk’s failed test raising questions about Chapovskyi’s methods, fans fear the midfielder could inadvertently find himself caught up in a similar controversy.
