Tottenham Hotspur fans will be delighted with the latest update regarding Dejan Kulusevski, as he edges closer to full fitness.
Kulusevski started training with the Spurs squad earlier this month after nearly 500 days on the sidelines with a serious knee injury.
However, a few days later, Roberto De Zerbi said the Swede had stopped training due to a ‘small problem’, but made it clear it was nothing serious.
The Tottenham boss praised the work of the club’s medical staff and admitted that he is looking forward to having Kulusevski back in his squad.
