Mudryk back in professional football after two-year ban as Spurs draw

Anyone who opened Tottenham vs Nottingham Forest live for the first glimpse of a rebuilt Spurs attack also saw a longer story close. Mykhaylo Mudryk returned to professional football after a two-year ban, appearing as Tottenham shared a 0-0 with Forest and collected their first Premier League point of the season.

Fabrizio Romano posted the confirmation as the match ended: Mudryk was back in the professional game, and the goalless draw was Tottenham’s first point of the campaign. Separate reports timed the appearance as his first competitive match in 646 days.

What was confirmed

This is not a predicted lineup and it is not a transfer rumour. The hard fact is the return itself. De Zerbi had said before kick-off that Mudryk was ready for a limited burst of minutes. The Ukrainian then featured as Forest vs Tottenham live stayed scoreless.

Tottenham still have not scored in three Premier League matches. That is the match-day context for anyone searching soccer games today or Tottenham live. The squad note that sits beside the result is Mudryk’s availability after the ban, not a verdict on the summer spend.
