Dejan Kulusevski Returns to Sweden Squad After Nearly Two Years Away: “This Week Will Give Me a Huge Boost”

Dejan Kulusevski is back with the national team. The Tottenham star took part in his first national team training session in almost two years today. “It feels like I’m home,” says the 26-year-old.

After 526 days out injured, Kulusevski has made four Premier League appearances for Tottenham in recent weeks.

Now he is back in the national team too. In the scorching sun, Kulusevski took part in Tuesday’s hour-long training session. A little later, he met the Swedish media at the national team’s base outside Valencia.

I think this week will give me a huge boost, says Kulusevski.

Kulusevski has not played for the national team since November 2024, and this is the first time Graham Potter has been able to call him up.

The star expects to play straight away.

I will get to play in both matches, around 30 minutes in each, he says.

Sweden leads its group in the Nations League ahead of the final matches against Bosnia-Herzegovina and Poland.
