Davinson Sanchez praised Dejan Kulusevski on Instagram after the Tottenham Hotspur winger starred on international duty for Sweden.
The 23-year-old scored as Sweden thrashed Estonia 5-0 in their Euro 2024 qualifier on Saturday – it still leaves the Swedes four points behind second-placed Austria and leaders Belgium with five games to spare.
Either way, Dejan Kulusevski has helped ensure that they are going to fight until the end to earn that ticket to Germany next summer, with the Tottenham winger taking his Premier League form onto the international stage.
Spurs are flying under Ange Postecoglou, they are unbeaten in their opening four matches and scoring goals galore.
Last season, Kulusevski’s form fell off a bit of a cliff after that quite rapid and impressive start when he first joined the club on a loan deal from Juventus in January – he has since secured a £27 million transfer to the London club (Evening Standard).
But now the left-footed technician is showcasing his old form and when he took to Instagram, in the comments section of his post, Davinson Sanchez, wrote ‘Bravo, Dejan’ to his former teammate’s performance, whilst Pierluigi Gollini added ‘big Brodi’.
Kulusevski’s form picking up
On transfer deadline day, Spurs brought in some added competition to the squad in Wales international Brennan Johnson.
The 22-year-old’s two preferred positions are either down the middle, or more than likely, cutting in from that right flank.
Well, given that’s where Kulusevski plays and has only played, then he will now be fully aware that, any drop-off in form, and he will start to warm the bench.
Equally, if he shows the form he showed when he first joined the club, then he will become one of Postecoglou’s most dangerous and efficient forwards.
