Tottenham star Dejan Kulusevski gives fitness update after almost a year out injured

  • Tottenham forward Dejan Kulusevski has stated his knee is in “great” condition after a recent procedure.
  • Kulusevski has been sidelined since last May due to a serious knee injury sustained during a match against Crystal Palace, which required surgery on his right patella.
  • Despite an initial expectation to return by the end of December, he remains out, and was recently seen limping while visiting the Sweden national team camp.
  • He clarified on Instagram that his limp was due to a "small intervention" two weeks prior to remove unwanted material from his knee.
  • Spurs have felt Kulusevski's absence, lacking creativity amid their fight to stay in the Premier League, with coaches and the Sweden manager indicating his recovery is slower than hoped.
