I have had a lot of contact with "Kulu”. He will not be available. He is injured and trying to get back. It's going well but it's too early, says Tomasson to the site.
It was in the beginning of May that Kulusevski injured himself during a Premier League match against Crystal Palace. A few days later, he underwent surgery, which meant that the 25-year-old missed the end of the season with Tottenham, including the Europa League final.
Four months later, Kulusevski is still not playable.
It's a disappointment because we would love to play with "Kulu". But football is never perfect, says Tomasson.
Sweden plays its first World Championship qualification matches against Slovenia on September 5 and against Kosovo on September 8.
