The Kulusevski injury update confirms a Tottenham bench return against Coventry, while Richarlison is out and Maddison’s role remains undecided.

Tottenham Hotspur forward Dejan Kulusevski is set to return to the matchday squad on the bench against Coventry after 527 days out injured. Manager Roberto De Zerbi announced the update during his Sunday press conference, confirming that medical staff approved his availability after a long rehabilitation from a complicated patella injury suffered in May 2025.
De Zerbi also addressed the rest of the squad, noting that James Maddison is fully available with a starting decision pending. Meanwhile, forward Richarlison remains excluded from the matchday squad following a club decision after he requested to leave during the summer transfer window.
