Dejan Kulusevski confident improving at Tottenham

Dejan Kulusevski feels ready to take his game to a new level at Tottenham.

The Sweden attacker was signed permanently from Juventus this week.

He told the club's website: “I've learned a lot about momentum, not just in football, but in life. Momentum is big, when you feel good, when you're on top, you have to beat your opponents. So, for instance, when you're playing well, you have to attack, you have to score goals but when you're up against it, you have to be more together as a group.

"There are things where I have to grow, when things are going badly, you have to forget (about them) as quickly as possible. This season was too much about why things aren't going as well as they should, then you think, 'I have to change this, I have to change that' but then you lose the focus on yourself. Personally, for me, I've learned I have to stay on my path, keep doing what I do good and continue to do it."

Kulusevski also said: “I still think I can grow so much. I'm still young, I'm 23, I hope to play this game for many years, and I think I can improve a lot, especially in the head, because that's where it all is - football here, everyone can play. I'm always positive. We all love this game. Eventually, the storm goes and it's all smiles again..."
