Nobody knows when Dejan Kulusevsk is going to be able to play again. That is the common theme Tottenham Hotspur fans are getting from all the small injury updates and the other non updates thrown in, as Kulusevski still does not have a clear time table for a return with neither manager Igor Tudor nor Spurs as a club providing any clarity on the Swedish international’s absence.
The only real nuggets Spurs fans have to go off of are coming from Swedish national team manager Graham Potter and outlets in the country. Kulusevski is not playing or practicing, but he is back in focus with Sweden set to do battle this March international break in World Cup qualifying matches. They are currently camped out in Spain, and Kulu has been meeting up with his teammates and at least socializing with them, providing an opportunity for the cameras to check in on the Tottenham star right winger.

The outlet Sportbladet observed him still limping around his teammates during training. Dejan Kulusevski obviously did not participate in the training sessions, but he was observed talking with them and briefly hugging them, sharing exchanges. Graham Potter spoke briefly about Kulu to the press, too, but all he said is that he still does not know when the star man will be able to train with the team again.
Dejan Kulusevski is still limping
At this point, it is almost 100 percent certain that Kulusevski will not play a single minute in the 2025/26 season for Tottenham, and the fears Spurs fans have of Kulu’s career being over still have not been fully addressed or dismissed.
Potter did note that Kulusevski was making progress on the knee injury at a recent press conference before the break started, so that would go against Kulu suffering from a career threatening injury. But it does not completely rule out the worst, given how slow that progress has been.

Kulusevski initially suffered the injury towards the end of the 2024/25 season, and Tottenham have not made it known publicly what the extent or official diagnosis of the injury even is. The fact that fans are still kept in the dark is hugely concerning, and the fact that reporters from Sweden are still observing Kulusevski visibly limping around is doubly concerning. Tottenham are going to have to fight through relegation without Kulu as a stabilizing presence, and everyone can only pray he will be back next season.
