Mykhailo Mudryk Poised to Join Tottenham on Loan from Chelsea

Mykhailo Mudryk Set for Loan Move to Tottenham

Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk appears close to securing a loan switch to rival club Tottenham Hotspur. The 25-year-old Ukrainian has recently been cleared to play again after his doping suspension was lifted by the English FA and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

The London club made Mudryk available for loan, aiming to help him regain form as chances in Xabi Alonso's first team are limited this season. According to well-known journalist Fabrizio Romano, Mudryk will join Tottenham for the 2026-27 season, where he will reunite with manager Roberto De Zerbi.

The deal reportedly includes an option to buy, but the financial terms have not been disclosed yet. Tottenham has been searching for a new left-sided attacker after missing out on Everton's Iliman Ndiaye, who chose to move to Manchester City instead.
