Dejan Kulusevski secures permanent deal with Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs Credit: None
Tottenham Hotspur has confirmed the signing of Swedish international Dejan Kulusevski from Juventus on a permanent basis.
The 23-year-old forward, who joined the Premier League side on an initial 18-month loan in January 2022, has now extended his stay until 2028.
Kulusevski made an instant impact on his first start for Spurs, scoring and setting up a goal in a 3-2 victory over Manchester City in February 2022.
His form was instrumental in securing the Club's spot in last year's UEFA Champions League.
In his first season at Tottenham, the versatile attacker made 37 appearances and scored seven goals in all competitions.
Remarkably, Kulusevski became the first player in Premier League history to finish the season in the top 10 for assists despite making less than 20 appearances.
Beyond his club success, Kulusevski has also made his mark on the international stage.
The Swedish international has earned 29 caps and netted two goals for his country.
His impressive first year in the Premier League was acknowledged in his home country, as he won the 2022 Guldbollen, the award for Sweden’s best male player.
