Tottenham coach Antonio Conte is extremely pleased with how Dejan Kulusevski has settled into the club.

The attacker was in fine form as Spurs came from 1-0 down to defeat Newcastle United 5-1 in the Premier League on Sunday.

While Conte has been critical of Spurs' work in the January transfer window, he does admit to being happy with Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur.

He stated post-game: "We are talking about a player that I know him very well, because he played in Italy. He started to play with Atalanta, then Atalanta brought [sent] him on loan to Parma, and he played in Serie A. And he played in a fantastic way. When I was coach of Inter, I tried to ask him, but then Juventus moved before. Maybe they put more money than us at the time, and then they bought this player.

"We are talking about a player who is only 21 years old. And he has to continue to play this way. Because he's strong physically, big engine, he's good technically. I think for Tottenham, this is a great signing for the present and for the future. We are talking about really, really strong.

"But also Rodrigo Bentancur with us, I said that with these two players, despite that we lost four players in January, with these two new signings we made this squad more complete, with more balance. I think that it's very important in football to have a clear idea, and to have a good vision. Because in this way, the situation is more simple."
