Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dejan Kulusevski has reportedly returned to full training after missing the whole of last season.

Kulusevski injured his right patella with two league games left in 2024-25 following a collision with Marc Guehi during a league game against Crystal Palace.

Spurs had thought he would be back from the injury by the end of 2025, but he had to undergo surgery.

He has now returned to full training at Hotspur Way in a huge boost for manager Roberto De Zerbi.

Kulusevski never played for Thomas Frank and will now hope to impress when action resumes next season.

He was not part of the 35-man squad for Spurs’ pre-season tour of New Zealand and Australia.

Mohamed Kudus, Xavi Simons and Wilson Odobert also stayed behind at Hotspur Way to continue their rehabilitation.

However, Kulusevski is raring to go and could be ready to start playing games when the 2026-27 campaign starts.

Tottenham played MK Dons before heading on tour and have faced Auckland FC and Sydney FC.

They meet Chelsea next month before returning to London to take on Getafe and TSG Hoffenheim.

They start the 2026-27 Premier League season with a trip to Brentford on August 22, and Kulusevski could be available for selection.
