The 25-year-old winger will look to revive his career under Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi, who previously managed him at Shakhtar Donetsk.
De Zerbi, who took charge of Tottenham this past March, said in a statement from the London club: "I will demand a lot from Misha [Mudryk], and it's our duty to help him reach the best version of himself. If we succeed in that, he can become a very important player for us."
He added: "I'm very happy he chose to come here, and I'm looking forward to working with him again."
The English Football Association allowed Mudryk to return to play in late July following an agreement with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), which led the Ukrainian player to withdraw his appeal before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
Mudryk was suspended for four years after failing a drug test in 2024 that revealed a low level of the banned substance meld onium.
He played a few minutes with Chelsea during pre-season preparations in August but has not featured in any Premier League match so far this season.
The Ukraine international joined Chelsea from Shakhtar for £62 million ($83 million) in January 2023 and last played an official match in November 2024.
