Dejan Kulusevski bench decision could hint he is on the verge of a Tottenham return

Tottenham Hotspur fans are desperate to see Dejan Kulusevski in action for the first time in a year and a half, and they may not have to wait too long.

Roberto De Zerbi has been very positive about Kulusevski’s progress over recent weeks , with the Tottenham boss even suggesting that the attacking midfielder could be an even better player when he eventually returns.

There is no doubt that the 26-year-old will be like a new signing for the Lilywhites, having not featured for the club since May of 2025.
