Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that midfielder Dejan Kulusevski has suffered an injury to his right patella.
The Swedish international underwent surgery on the affected knee earlier today.
The news comes as a significant setback for Spurs, particularly with the upcoming UEFA Europa League final against Manchester United just around the corner.
Kulusevski sustained the injury during their recent Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace.
The club has stated that Kulusevski will immediately commence his rehabilitation program under the guidance of the Spurs medical staff. L
While the club has not provided a specific timeline for his recovery, the fact that surgery was required suggests a period on the sidelines for the influential midfielder.
This injury will be a major concern for manager Ange Postecoglou as he prepares his squad for the crucial Europa League final in Bilbao next week.
Kulusevski has been a key creative outlet for Spurs, and his absence will undoubtedly be felt. The focus will now be on his rehabilitation and hoping for a swift and full recovery.
