Mudryk joins Spurs on loan from Chelsea after doping ban ends
Mykhailo Mudryk will look to revitalise his career under Roberto De Zerbi, his former coach at Shakhtar Donetsk, who has taken over as Tottenham Hotspur manager.
Tottenham Hotspur has signed Ukrainian forward Mykhailo Mudryk on loan from Chelsea for the 2026/2027 season, following his recent release from a four-year doping ban. The 25-year-old winger will be managed by Roberto De Zerbi, his former coach at Shakhtar Donetsk. De Zerbi expressed his excitement about Mudryk joining the team, stating that he will demand a lot from the player and that it is their responsibility to help him reach his best version.
Mudryk, who was suspended for four years after testing positive for a low concentration of meldonium in 2024, made only a few minutes' appearance for Chelsea during pre-season in August. The Ukrainian international, who was signed from Shakhtar Donetsk for £62 million in January 2023, last played an official match for his previous club in November 2024.
