Tottenham in talks to sign winger Mudryk on loan

Tottenham Hotspur are discussing a potential loan signing of Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk on a season-long basis. The 25-year-old Ukrainian player is eager to return to the Premier League following the conclusion of his doping case with the Football Association. Mudryk successfully appealed against a four-year ban imposed by the FA, becoming eligible to play again as of July 31st.

Chelsea had previously attempted to sign other players, including Leeds and Everton's Iliman Ndiaye and Liverpool's Cody Gakpo, but Tottenham emerged as the most likely bidder. Mudryk, who has not played competitively since November 2024, has reportedly maintained a rapport with Tottenham's manager Roberto De Zerbi from his time at Shakhtar Donetsk.

The winger has been with Chelsea since a £61 million transfer in 2023 and initially received a provisional suspension for an adverse meldonium test in October 2024.
