Chelsea goalkeeper Sanchez joins Como on loan

Tottenham have secured the services of Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk on a season-long loan, with the option to make the deal permanent for £75 million. The 25-year-old Ukrainian international had previously resolved a doping issue with the Football Association. However, he has not played a competitive match since November 2024.

Chelsea had previously shown interest in other clubs, including Leeds and rejecting at least one offer, but Tottenham made their move at a late stage after failing to sign other targets, including Leeds' Iliman Ndiaye, who has since transferred to Manchester City, and Liverpool's Cody Gakpo.

Mudryk participated in Chelsea's pre-season tour of Australia and Asia, where he returned to action in a friendly against Juventus in Hong Kong. Nevertheless, he was not included in manager Xabi Alonso's Premier League squads for Chelsea's victories over Fulham, Brighton, or the Carabao Cup win against Luton.

Mudryk has scored 10 goals and provided 11 assists in 73 games across all competitions for Chelsea during his time at the club.
