Tottenham midfielder Kulusevski delighted for Gyokeres over Sporting CP move

Tottenham midfielder Dejan Kulusevski is full of praise for Sweden teammate Viktor Gyokeres.

The Sporting CP striker resisted Premier League interest when leaving Coventry City last summer for Lisbon.

Kulusevski said, "I know him well. We went to school together. He is incredibly strong and good at winning duels. It's nice to play with him.

"He's really good and I'm happy for him that things are going well at Sporting.

"He takes a lot of duels and then you yourself can focus on not taking the duels, but playing football, finding passes and teammates. He is really strong and fast. He is good in depth. A complete player."
