Dejan Kulusevski hypes up the ‘huge’ potential of teenage teammate at Spurs
Tottenham Hotspur have a number of talented young players in their squad right now, but Dejan Kulusevski has been praising one player in particular after his latest development at international level.
Kulusevski ready to support Bergvall
Despite only being 24-years-old, Kulusevski is now one of the more experienced and longer-serving players in the Spurs squad.
That is especially true now that his compatriot, Lucas Bergvall, has joined the Lilywhites, with Kulusevski serving as something of a mentor and guide for the young Swedish midfielder.
Bergvall has already made his debut for the national team in a friendly against Estonia in January, but has just been called up to the senior squad for a competitive fixture for the first time.
Speaking to Football.London about the teenage talent, Kulusevski highlighted how hard Bergvall has been working, and how he can help him step up on the international stage.
He said: “Yeah absolutely [he deserves the call up]. He has been fantastic. He has come in and he’s doing really good every day, training hard and learning from the other players. I’m happy for him and I’m happy that I can bring him to the national team with me.”
Bergvall has a big future
When asked about Bergvall’s potential, Kulusevski insisted the youngster can make an impact right away.
He added: “[He will be] huge. He’s very young but I think he can help us already from tomorrow [Monday], so I’m happy that he’s going to be there. Of course, he’s young but we’ll be there to guide him and help him.”
Spurs Web Opinion
I’ve already seen enough of Bergvall to tell me he’s going to be an absolutely brilliant player.
He already is, let’s be honest, but once he gets in the swing of things in the Premier League, I truly believe he will become one of the best midfielders in the division.
