The Sweden international ended a lengthy spell on the sidelines as Spurs overcame Coventry, marking his first appearance after more than 17 months away from competitive action.
Kulusevski said the period out injured had changed his perspective, adding that he feels “smarter” following the extended rehabilitation process. His availability gives Tottenham another experienced attacking option after an absence that had kept him out for well over a year.
The Coventry victory provided a positive setting for his comeback, with Tottenham able to welcome Kulusevski back into the squad while continuing their campaign.
