Boost for Tottenham as Dejan Kulusevski Returns to Full Training After 14 Months Out
Tottenham Hotspur have received a major fitness boost as midfielder Dejan Kulusevski has returned to full training after being sidelined for 14 months. The 26-year-old Swedish international suffered a right patella injury in a collision with Marc Guehi during a Premier League match against Crystal Palace in early May 2025. The cartilage injury proved tricky, with multiple setbacks preventing his recovery in time for the 2026 World Cup. Kulusevski missed the entire 2025/26 season and was not part of Spurs' pre-season tour squad for New Zealand and Australia. Club insider Szyexcl confirmed his return to full training at Hotspur Way. Manager Roberto De Zerbi has emphasized a cautious approach to reintegration, stating Kulusevski remains central to long-term plans but his fitness must be handled with care. Fans are optimistic but expect a gradual return to competitive action.
