Dejan Kulusevski reveals one-word Zlatan Ibrahimovic message after Tottenham injury return

Dejan Kulusevski has revealed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic sent him a one-word text message reading "Bravo" following his Tottenham comeback. The Sweden international returned to Premier League action against Coventry after an 18-month absence caused by a complex knee injury. Kulusevski credited Ibrahimovic and Ivan Perisic for advising him to consult a specialist doctor in Serbia during his lengthy recovery.

Since his return, the winger has made three further substitute appearances under manager Roberto De Zerbi against Chelsea, Crystal Palace, and Leeds. After missing the World Cup squad under Graham Potter last summer, Kulusevski has now reunited with Sweden for upcoming Nations League fixtures against Bosnia and Herzegovina and Poland.
