Ex-Everton captain Osman: Spurs attacker Kulusevski underrated

Former Everton captain Leon Osman has sung the praises of Tottenham attacker Dejan Kulusevski.

Osman feels the Swede is underrated.

He told BBC Sport: "I don't think Dejan Kulusevski gets spoken about enough and that is probably because of the quality players he plays alongside at Tottenham.

"Generally Heung-min Son or James Maddison steal the headlines but Kulusevski is a vital part of that side.

"For chances created he is top, dribbles made he is top, he's got a good ratio of goals and assists, and he also covers one of the highest distances for the team every single game, and he is able to play in numerous positions.

"He is one of the first names on the team sheet and never lets his manager down."
