Chelsea s two old players are in dire straits: Mudrik is suspended and in trouble, Ziyech was refused a medical examination and was not allowed to play

Once upon a time, they were Chelsea players. Now, Mudrik is caught in a ban, which has cast a shadow on his career future; Ziyech has been rejected by the team for physical examination and even faces the dilemma of not having a ball to play. The plight of the two former Chelsea stars is depressing.

Mudrick "switched" to become an online ride-hailing driver? Netizens joked: At least the rating is 4.91 stars!

Recently, a screenshot from the taxi-hailing software Uber went viral on social media, sparking heated discussions among fans - a driver named Mihailo Mudric not only has the same name as the Chelsea star, but also looks very similar.

This "Driver Mudrick" drives a gray Tesla and has completed more than 6,000 single trips, with a user rating of 4.91 stars (out of 5 stars). As soon as the news came out, British fans couldn't laugh or cry, and they joked: "It seems that Mudrick has found a side job during the suspension!" "His 'service attitude' is much more stable than his performance on the court, 4.91 stars!"

Although this is just a coincidence, the real Ukrainian international does not drive an online ride-hailing service, but behind this joke, it reflects the fans' helplessness and sympathy for his current situation.

Since June this year, Mudrick has been suspended indefinitely by the Football Association for violating anti-doping regulations and is currently awaiting the final outcome of the investigation. The 24-year-old winger has never been able to fulfill his talent since joining Chelsea. Now he is in the biggest crisis of his career, and his future is full of uncertainty.

There were earlier rumors that he might switch to track and field and compete in the Olympics, but the Ukrainian Athletics Federation has clearly denied receiving any application. From a highly anticipated new star to a "controversial figure" with an uncertain future, Mudrick's story is a sad one.

Ziyech was eliminated by the Romanian team for medical examination. No one dares to claim the former Champions League champion?

Another former Chelsea star Hakim Ziyech is in an equally embarrassing situation.

According to the "Sun" report, Romanian powerhouse Cluj originally intended to sign the Moroccan midfielder and regarded him as a key figure in the team's revival. The two sides held talks for weeks, but eventually fell through due to medical issues.

Cluj chairman Yoan Varga publicly explained the reason: "Ziyech did not pass our medical examination. He has an old injury on his left knee, and the doctor warned that there is a risk of recurrence. He has a good character, but we cannot risk spending a lot of money in exchange for a player who may not be able to play."

What makes the club even more daunting is that Ziyech's annual salary is as high as 2.5 million euros, which is far beyond the affordability of the Romanian team.

Varga said frankly: "I am sorry, because he is indeed a special player. But we must be realistic and need healthy players who can help the team immediately."

Since leaving Chelsea, Ziyech, 32, has played for Galatasaray and Qatar's Duhail, but he has failed to regain his peak form. Now rejected by Cluj, he is once again unemployed.

Looking back on 2020, he joined Chelsea for 40 million pounds and won the 2021 Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup with the team, which is a great success. Nowadays, it is difficult to find a job due to injuries and high salary expectations, and the ups and downs of fate are emotional.
