Tottenham Hotspur faces a significant setback ahead of the highly anticipated Europa League final. Former Juventus player Dejan Kulusevski will not be available for the match scheduled for next Wednesday against Manchester United at the San Mamés stadium in Bilbao.
The winger has undergone surgery, as confirmed by the English club in a statement. “We can confirm that Dejan Kulusevski sustained an injury to his right patella (kneecap) during our Premier League match against Crystal Palace last weekend,” Tottenham explained.
Following further specialist consultations, the midfielder had surgery today and will immediately begin his rehabilitation program with the medical staff. “We are all with you, Deki,” the Spurs concluded in their note.
