Tottenham: Dejan Kulusevski played football again after 500 days of waiting

The end of the ordeal for Dejan Kulusevski? Absent from the field since May 2025 following a kneecap injury, the Swedish striker required two surgeries and has not played again at professional level. 500 days without kicking a ball which have just ended.

If his return with Tottenham in an official match is still awaited, the Evening Standard reveals that he trained with the first team against young Tottenham U21 and U18 players. A first step before finding the rhythm to play in the Premier League again.
