Kulusevski Close to Return as Tottenham Stay Cautious

Sweden’s manager says the winger could join the Nations League squad only with clearance from Tottenham’s medical team.

Overview

  • Kulusevski has resumed full-team training after roughly 477–500 days out following a complex knee injury that required multiple surgeries.
  • The attacker was named in a recent Premier League squad but a small problem in late preparations led Tottenham to withdraw him from selection as a precaution.
  • Sweden manager Graham Potter told SVT that Kulusevski is “very close” to match readiness and expressed hope he could join the Nations League squad in late September.
  • Any international call-up depends on talks between Potter, Kulusevski and Tottenham and on formal medical clearance from the club’s staff, with no return date set.
  • The case underlines Tottenham’s stepped approach to reintroducing a long-term injury case and means fans should watch for club medical updates and Sweden’s squad announcement ahead of the September 25 fixture.
