Tottenham attacker Dejan Kulusevski admits revenge is a motivating factor for him.

Speaking ahead of his side's game against Manchester City on Sunday, Kulusevski admitted that he was relishing proving his doubters wrong, and was using it as fuel to propel his fine form in the Premier League.

“That's how you want to be as a person – when you come into a room, you want to change the energy, you want to bring something to the table," the Swede said.

“That's what I try to do and that's what Rodrigo did. I had a lot of revenge in my head. From Juventus. In the last few months, I didn't play so much. A lot of anger. I didn't like where my football was going. So, it was just revenge for that. That's all I wanted…to show people what I could do, so I came here."

The Swede added, "In all the big games this season, we haven't been good enough.

"We have lost them. That's why we are fifth. It's important we get this win. We were close a couple of weeks ago at City. We played an amazing first-half but not in the second. The time to push on is now."
