According to Alasdair Gold, Tottenham Hotspur correspondent for Football.London, Mudryk sustained an ankle injury during training and is not expected to return until after the international break.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Mudryk has suffered an ankle injury in training and is expected to return only after the international break.

On transfer deadline day, Mudryk joined Tottenham Hotspur on a season-long loan from Chelsea, reuniting with his former Shakhtar Donetsk coach and current Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi.

This transfer comes just weeks after Mudryk's 20-month doping ban for a positive meldonium test was lifted.

Last weekend, Mudryk came on as a substitute in Tottenham Hotspur's 0-0 draw against Nottingham Forest, playing in the second half. This was his first official match since his ban was overturned and his first appearance in 646 days.

However, Football.London understands that Mudryk has already suffered an injury and will be sidelined for some time. He is not expected to return until after the international break, meaning he will miss this weekend's match against Everton, the League Cup match against Liverpool, and the Premier League fixture against Aston Villa.
