Dejan Kulusevski has made it clear that he can play in the same Tottenham team as Richarlison. A huge hit in north London following his January switch from Juventus, the Swede was replaced in the starting XI by his new teammate for the Fulham and Marseille fixtures.
Introduced on the hour mark with Spurs struggling to find a way past their French opponents in the Champions League on Wednesday evening, the youngster made an impact as soon as he entered the fray as he looked to make things happen in the final third. Perhaps previously seen as one of Kulusevski or Richarlison joining Harry Kane and Son Heung-min in the starting XI, Tottenham's January addition has admitted that he doesn't even know why it is a question about playing alongside the Brazil international.
"Of course, I don't know why that is a question. I can play with everybody. It is very easy," he said when asked if the final 30 minutes of the Marseille win demonstrates that he can play with Richarlison. "I came in and the coach wanted me to stay on the wing and dribble my guy and that's what I did."
