Dejan Kulusevski returns to Tottenham action after 526-day absence

Tottenham attacking midfielder Dejan Kulusevski made his long-awaited return in the closing stages of their English Premier League match against Coventry.

Manager Roberto De Zerbi sent the 26-year-old on in the 87th minute of the home fixture, marking Kulusevski’s first appearance for the club in 526 days. The Sweden international had been recovering from a serious knee injury that required surgery.

Tottenham were leading 2-1 when Kulusevski entered the game. They then secured the result in the sixth minute of added time, with Ben Davies scoring their third goal.
