Tottenham’s Kulusevski Stance Signals New Era of Resolve

Spurs Draw Line in the Sand Over Kulusevski Future

In a transfer landscape obsessed with liquidity and leverage, Tottenham Hotspur have chosen, for once, to be stubborn. Dejan Kulusevski, the angular, oddly graceful Swede whose game thrives in chaos and control alike, is reportedly the subject of serious interest from Serie A giants Napoli and AC Milan.

Yet Spurs, according to GiveMeSport, are “determined to keep hold” of the 24-year-old and will not entertain offers below a premium valuation — thought to be well in excess of £50 million.

This is less about deterring suitors and more about a club planting its flag in the ground. Tottenham, often caricatured as a selling club when it suits the narrative, now seem prepared to hold their nerve.

Kulusevski’s deal runs until 2028. That’s the sort of contract length that, in football’s passive-aggressive theatre, says: “We’re not even taking your call.”

Spurs are aware of Serie A’s rising admiration. Napoli’s interest carries the subplot of a potential reunion with Antonio Conte, while Milan’s overtures are shaped by Fabio Paratici, whose fingerprints are still all over Tottenham’s squad-building.

But here’s the key: “Spurs will slap a hefty price tag on Kulusevski,” as GiveMeSport note. It’s a declaration of intent. Spurs are not reactive anymore — they are shaping their own stories.

Kulusevski Remains Central to Ange’s Vision

Gabby Agbonlahor recently called Kulusevski “outstanding”. He has been one of the most tactically pliable players under Ange Postecoglou — able to float between lines, press hard, and provide thrust even when Spurs’ structure wobbles.

Despite currently being sidelined, his influence is not diminished. There is no indication that Kulusevski himself is angling for a move. If anything, he appears more embedded in the club’s identity than ever.
