Football transfer deadline day: Manchester City sign Ndiaye and agree £125m Fernández deal - live
Tottenham Hotspur has reached an agreement to sign Mykhailo Mudryk on loan from Chelsea, reuniting him with manager Roberto De Zerbi. The move follows a busy transfer deadline day that also saw Manchester City secure new signings.
Why it matters
High-profile football transfers significantly impact team performance and the financial landscape of professional sports leagues.
Roberto De Zerbi is poised to be reunited with a footballing “son” after Tottenham reached an agreement with Chelsea for the loan signing of Mykhailo Mudryk, it is understood. A deal has also been agreed for Tosin Adarabioyo to move to Spurs from Stamford Bridge permanently for a fee understood to be £7m.
Spurs pivoted to Ukraine international Mudryk on Monday after a dramatic finale to a remarkable summer transfer window for the north London club.
After no progress in a pursuit for Liverpool’s Cody Gakpo, Tottenham reached an agreement in principle with Everton for Iliman Ndiaye on Sunday before Manchester City, having also missed out on Gakpo, hijacked the deal, forcing De Zerbi to turn to Mudryk.
Mudryk returned from a 20-month suspension last month and worked with De Zerbi at Shakhtar Donetsk before a transfer to Chelsea in 2023 .
