Tottenham star ‘in the sights’ of AC Milan for January – Player is Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s ‘obsession’ and could lead to move

Tottenham Hotspur have seen Dejan Kulusevski impress this season, as he continues to play in an attacking midfield role

While Ange Postecoglou’s side suffered a loss to Crystal Palace at the weekend and are currently eighth, Kulusevski is having a good start to the season and has arguably been Tottenham’s best player so far.

The arrival from Juventus has settled into life in London but there is now a suggestion that he could return to Italy as early as January.

JuveLive have reported on the Spurs star, saying that his performances have caught the attention of AC Milan.

The Rossoneri see Kulusevski as a potential replacement for Rafael Leao, whose future is uncertain and whose departure will hand Milan with some funds to use for the Tottenham star.

Kulusevski is ‘in the sights’ of the Diavolo, largely due to Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s ‘obsession’ for him that dates back to his younger years. This admiration for the midfielder could lead to Milan making a move for him.

The report mentions that AC Milan value the Swede at around €50m, which is likely to be way too low.
