Summarised by MatchPal
Kulusevski ends 500+ day injury absence, travelling with Spurs to Old Trafford this weekend after two surgeries on patella injury.
Dejan Kulusevski's lengthy injury layoff appears to be nearing its end. The Tottenham forward has been sidelined for over 500 days with a complicated patella injury requiring two surgeries, but manager Roberto De Zerbi confirmed he will travel to Old Trafford for this weekend's match against Manchester United. Kulusevski has returned to training after a minor setback and featured in an internal friendly, though it remains unclear if he will play. De Zerbi plans to use him in a support role and views his return as inspirational for a Spurs squad winless and bottom of the Premier League.
