In a recent report, Juve Live revealed that Tottenham Hotspur playmaker Dejan Kulusevski is gathering interest from AC Milan. It has been stated that the Milan giants have eyeing a move for the Swedish talent as they look to sign him from Spurs next year.
Kulusevski’s Impressive Form In The Premier League This Season
Kulusevski has made a strong start to this Premier League campaign as he has put in a handful of impressive performances for Tottenham in the opponent’s half. The Swedish sensation has played in 13 matches for Spurs this season, finding the back of the net on two occasions and grabbing two assists across all competitions.
The 24-year-old has been a good contributor for Tottenham in the final third based on his average of 1.9 shots, 2.7 key passes and 1.1 dribbles per 90 minutes in Premier League football. He has even been tidy when distributing the ball after completing 82.1% of his attempted passes in the English top tier (stats via whoscored).
His current contract at the North London club will expire in the summer of 2028. Thus, Tottenham would be under no pressure to cash in on Kulusevski this January or at the end of this campaign.
Can Tottenham Hotspur Boss Ange Postecoglu Afford To Lose Kulusevski?
Kulusevski is a decent dribbler with the ball and has got the eye to play some decisive passes on the offensive end of the field. He can even shoot the ball with power and precision from long range.
The Sweden international has chipped in by scoring and creating his fair share of goals for Spurs this season. He mainly operates in the number ten position but can also play as a box-to-box midfielder or as a right-winger if asked to do so by his manager.
Kulusevski remains an important member of Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglu’s first XI. Therefore, Spurs cannot afford to lose a player of his quality next year. The Swede has already proven himself to be a reliable performer in the Premier League and could help the North London club compete for a major trophy in the coming years. With all things considered, Postecoglu would be wise to keep hold of Kulusevski for the long run.
