Dejan Kulusevski has overtaken Lucas Moura in Tottenham Hotspur’s starting eleven since his English Premier League debut.
The Sweden international joined Tottenham Hotspur in the January window this year and has become the main man on the right flank.
Kulusevski with Son and Kane has become one of the deadly trios in the Premier League. After his arrival, Spurs managed to qualify for the Champions League and remain undefeated this season.
Tottenham signed the Swedish striker on loan after missing out on Luiz Diaz from Porto and Adama Traore from Wolves. The London club paid 10 million euros to Juve to sign the player on loan for 18 months. Since his arrival at Tottenham’s stadium, the former Juve striker has made 29 appearances in the Premier League. He has registered six goals and 11 assists so far.
Fabrizio Ramano’s thoughts on making the Tottenham Hotspur move permanent
According to transfer guru Fabrizio Ramano, Tottenham Hotspur are considering making Kulusevski’s deal permanent in 2023. He also outlined the two ways to sign him under the contract between the two clubs.
The first process of this agreement is the obligation to buy the player for 35 million euros that will be activated after playing 20 games in the Premier League for 45 minutes or more. If Spurs qualify for the Champions League next season, they will also have to make the move permanent.
Second, there is an option to purchase clause in your loan agreement. Even if some conditions are not met, Spurs can still buy him. But Ramano “has no doubt” that Tottenham will make this deal permanent next year.
Tottenham Hotspur are enjoying an unbeaten run in the Premier League, they are challenging City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United for top spot. Antonio Conte’s men added 17 points in seven league games and occupy 3rd place in the league table with the same point as Manchester City. If they maintain this form, Spurs can easily qualify for the Champions League next season.
Sweden International is also enjoying his life at Tottenham Hotspur. In an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, he spoke about his experience so far after leaving Turin: “I like to look forward instead of looking back.
Surely, it was not good at Juventus for many reasons and when you realize that things do not work out, it is difficult to change direction in the same environment. The decision to leave Italy was the best thing I could have done in that situation. Everything is better in England. On and off the field. Now I always want to play football and win for my team.”
Kulusevski also added the effects of the demands of Italian coach Antonio Conte at Spurs: “At Tottenham we work much more in the gym and the results are there. My world has changed. I must say that I have never in my life met a person as motivated as Conte. When someone like him speaks to you, he enters your heart.”
After the international break, Tottenham Hotspur will return to action on Saturday in the London derby against arch-rivals Arsenal.
