Tottenham handed critical Dejan Kulusevski boost as date set for return

Tottenham Hotspur playmaker Dejan Kulusevski is nearing a return to action after being sidelined for more than 500 days with a severe patella injury. According to a report from The Sun, the Sweden international could be named on the substitutes' bench for Spurs' Premier League fixture against Manchester United on October 10.

Kulusevski has returned to full training following two surgeries, having last played for Tottenham on May 11, 2025. His return provides a timely lift for manager Roberto De Zerbi, whose team currently sits bottom of the Premier League table after failing to win any of their first five matches.
