Tottenham fans may be in for a surprise as Dejan Kulusevski, one of the team’s standout players, is rumored to be considering a move away.
The Swedish midfielder has been a key figure for Spurs under Ange Postecoglou, showcasing his talent, especially in their 4-0 win against Manchester City. But despite his contributions, whispers of dissatisfaction have emerged.
Kulusevski, who has impressed as a No. 10 this season, has reportedly grown frustrated with his role in the squad.
With Spurs struggling and sitting 11th in the table as 2025 begins, the player’s future in north London is now uncertain. Speculation about his next move has already started, with reports of initial talks happening behind the scenes.

Could Dejan Kulusevski return to Serie A?
The rumors gained traction when MilanLive revealed that AC Milan, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic as a key influencer, has shown interest in Kulusevski.
Ibrahimovic has reportedly reached out to his compatriot, exploring the possibility of bringing him back to Italy. Kulusevski made a name for himself in Serie A, with notable stints at Atalanta, Juventus, and Parma.
Milan are considering a loan deal with a mandatory buy option to secure Kulusevski. However, Tottenham are unlikely to make things easy.
The London club reportedly values the 24-year-old at around £42-50 million ($52-62m), and his contract runs until 2027, giving Spurs a strong negotiating position.
Still, the lure of European football and the chance to reunite with familiar surroundings might tempt Kulusevski. Milan, however, will first need to offload Nigerian forward Samuel Chukwueze to make room for the potential transfer.
For now, Kulusevski remains a Spurs player and is expected to feature in their upcoming match against Newcastle United. His next move will be something to watch as the January transfer window unfolds.
