Tottenham Hotspur will be eager to keep Dejan Kulusevski at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium beyond the summer transfer window amid his links with AC Milan and Napoli.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Dejan Kulusevski has garnered a market in Serie A with his exploits for Tottenham Hotspur. AC Milan and Napoli are keen on signing him in the summer transfer window. However, the Lilywhites do not want to part ways with the Swedish international anytime soon.
The rise and rise of Dejan Kulusevski at Tottenham
Dejan Kulusevski has established himself as one of the best young attacking prospects in the Premier League since joining Tottenham Hotspur from Juventus. The North London club initially signed the Swede on loan in January 2022 before completing a permanent move 18 months later.
The 24-year-old has been a rare bright spot for Tottenham amid a chaotic period for the North London club in the last three years. Kulusevski has been the best player for the Premier League club this term, contributing to 20 goals in 42 appearances across all competitions by finding the back of the net ten times and providing ten assists.
Meanwhile, Kulusevski’s progress at Tottenham Hotspur has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Serie A bigwigs, in particular, are keen on signing the Swedish international in the summer transfer window, with AC Milan and Napoli among the prospective suitors vying for his signature.
Serie A return on the horizon?
AC Milan will unlikely complete a permanent move for Joao Felix in the summer transfer window amid the Portuguese international’s struggles since arriving from Chelsea. So, the Serie A club’s interest in Dejan Kulusevski is understandable. The Tottenham playmaker can also be a solution on the flanks if Rafael Leao leaves the Rossoneri in the coming months.
As for Napoli, Khvicha Kvaratskheli has left a gaping hole in the offensive unit at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium since joining Paris Saint-Germain in the winter transfer window. So, the Serie A title contenders need an attacking reinforcement in the summer transfer window, making the 24-year-old Swede a viable target.
However, prising Kulusevski away from Tottenham will be a tall order, with the North London club keen on keeping him at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium beyond the summer transfer window. So, it will be interesting to see what the future has in store for the Swedish international.
