  "account": "Chelsea has placed Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudryk up for loan, but as of Aug. 19, no club has expressed interest in signing him temporarily, according to Football.London. Mudryk is part of a group of players, including Nicolas Jackson, Liam Delap, and others, who are reportedly training separately from the main Chelsea squad. Emmanuel Emegha, a recent signing from Strasbourg, is expected to compete for a starting role alongside Welbeck and João Pedro. Mudryk has not played an official match since November 2024 and had a four-year ban lifted on July 31 after tests for banned substance meldonium, which was overturned by the FA and WADA. He trained with Chelsea in Hong Kong during the preseason and made an appearance in a friendly against Juventus. Reports suggest that Mudryk might leave Chelsea during the summer window, possibly on loan, to gain regular playing time.",
