Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dejan Kulusevski has been spotted turning up at Sweden training in Bosön on crutches and has been banned from doing interviews with the media there.
That’s according to Fotboll Skanalen, who report the Tottenham midfielder surprised his fellow national team players with an appearance at their training camp this week.
He turned up on crutches as he continues his recovery from surgery, after missing the end of the season with Tottenham following surgery on his left patella.
Ange Postecoglou has already stated the midfielder is uncertain for the start of next season, hence his absence from the national team set up this week.
He spoke briefly to the outlet, confirming that he feels good before then telling them that he is not allowed to do any interviews. In other words, he’s not allowed to talk about his injury situation, under orders from Tottenham.
The Swedish press officer then seemingly intervened, revealing that the Tottenham man will try to watch Sweden’s clash with Algeria on Tuesday. Then the doctors arrived and wanted to look at his knee, says the newspaper.
How they assess the injury remains to be seen, but it seems Tottenham don’t want him talking about it with any media outlets either way.
