It's news that Dejan Kulusevski wants to leave Tottenham.
"Kulusevski is said to be interested in a move to AC Milan after a frustrating season at Tottenham," said England Football Insider on the 8th (Korea time). Kulusevski is interested in returning to the Italian stage after leaving Juventus in 2023," he reported.
The media reported Kulusevski's transfer based on the words of Mick Brown, who previously served as the chief scout for Manchester United and Blackburn Rovers. Football Insider added: "Tottenham will demand a huge transfer fee for Kulusevski. Several big clubs are watching Kulusevski's situation. AC Milan and Napoli are watching. These clubs want to step up their attacks in the summer transfer market and can explore the possibility of signing Kulusevski."
Of course, Tottenham say they never want to sell Kulusevski. This is because Tottenham consider Kulusevski an important player in their future plans. However, Kulusevski is understood to have ambitions to play in Europe's best tournament.
Former Brown scouts added "Kulusevski is one of the players who could leave this summer. I think a lot of players are frustrated with the way the season has gone at Tottenham. I hear AC Milan and Napoli are eyeing him. Kulusevski will also be interested in a transfer if he gets the chance. It's possible even if Tottenham doesn't want to transfer. Kulusevski wants to play at the top level. I'm not surprised to see him transfer because he's a good enough player."
Kulusevski became a key player for Tottenham after moving to Tottenham on loan in the 2021-2022 season. He helped Son Heung-min and Harry Kane from the first season and showed very outstanding performances. His performance over the past two seasons has not been satisfactory, but he has been the most consistent in many positions this season. He is having his best season since his transfer to Tottenham, scoring 10 goals and 10 assists in 42 games this season.
Kulusevski is so important that he is the most valuable player in Tottenham's transfer market. If Kulusevski leaves with the possibility of Christian Romero's transfer, Tottenham will leave all of its key players in offense and defense.
Even if Kulusevski really wants to transfer, Tottenham will not be able to send him easily. He was hired for a transfer fee of 30 million euros (about 48.5 billion won), and now his value has risen to 60 million euros (about 97.1 billion won). Negotiations with Tottenham will not be easy as AC Milan and Napoli are not a team that can afford enormously financially.
Since manager Antonio Conte's appointment to Naples, Kulusevski has been constantly rumored to transfer to Naples.
