TL;DR

  • Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk receives a four-week ban on FACEIT for offensive chat messages.
  • Comments referenced sensitive World War II events involving Poland and Ukraine.
  • Ban follows FACEIT’s repeat-offense policy and includes a probation period.

Chelsea FC footballer Mykhailo Mudryk has been handed a four-week ban from the Counter-Strike 2 platform FACEIT after posting offensive messages during an online match.

According to reports, the incident occurred while Mudryk was playing a competitive game on FACEIT, where he used in-game text chat to make remarks referencing the Massacres of Poles in Volhynia and Eastern Galicia during World War II, as well as Germany’s invasion of Poland in 1939. These historical events remain deeply sensitive, particularly in discussions involving Polish and Ukrainian relations.

According to reports, FACEIT’s moderation team acted under its existing toxicity and conduct policy. The platform states that a four-week ban is applied to accounts that have previously committed an offense. Once the suspension ends, the account enters a three-month probation period, during which any further violations can lead to harsher penalties. A third toxicity-related ban may result in a one-year suspension from the platform.

The situation reportedly began after Mudryk’s opponents mocked him over a failed drug test in June 2025. In response, the Chelsea winger escalated the exchange by bringing up historical atrocities through chat messages, which ultimately triggered moderation action.

Mudryk has already faced scrutiny off the pitch. In December 2024, he tested positive for meldonium, a performance-enhancing substance banned by The FA. He later tested positive again in June, a development that could result in a suspension of up to four years from professional football.
