Dejan Klushevski is growing into Tottenham's ace in name and reality. He has played in 20 games this season and scored nine goals, playing a pivotal role in the team this season.

As such, there is a great concern within the team about his injury. Recently, Klushevski has been so careful at the team level that he replaced him in the second half in league games.

British media Football London called Klushevski one of Tottenham's best performers this season on the 3rd. He helped beat Manchester City 4-0 in the 12th round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2024-2025 season on the 24th of last month. In the fifth round of the Europa League (UEL) League phase of the 2024-2025 season against AS Roma, held on the 29th of the same month, it was evaluated that they had a successful two-game series with one assist.



However, Tottenham struggled later in the game without Klushevski.

Tottenham drew 1-1 in the 13th round of the EPL against Fulham on the 1st. Tottenham was unable to break through Fulham's defensive wall in the absence of Klushevski and seemed to be struggling throughout the first half. He rushed Klushevski in the second half, but there was not enough time to make an impact. It was a game where his absence, acting as a lubricant for the team's offense with ball rationing and powerful dribbling, was desperately felt.



Coach Anze Postecoglou said of Klusevski, "A player who doesn't settle down to be the best. He's young, he's improving a lot." It's a good thing for the team as well."

Klushevski also replied that he knows he can still improve and that he has confidence in his abilities. He said "I think other players have something they don't have"That's what I'm looking for, and I can't compare myself to any other player."

Asked if what he was looking for was endless energy, Klushevsky was "right. I'm not tired, I'm trying to run harder than anyone else." He said "That's my way of playing, my way of training" and "Every day I try to be as good a player as possible in every way"



For the rest of December, Tottenham will play six games in the EPL. The team's goal is to raise the league's ranking as much as possible to start next year in a good mood. For this reason, Postecoglou is expected to actively use Klushevski above all else. There are still many games left this year, so Klushevski's stable participation is the most important moment.

Concerns about injuries should be taken into consideration, but his accumulation of warnings is also an area that requires attention. According to EPL regulations, players who receive a total of five yellow cards by the 19th round will be suspended for one game. Currently, Klushevski has received a total of three yellow cards until the 13th round. If he receives two more yellow cards in the remaining six games, he will be suspended for one game.

Rodrigo Bentancourt and Mickey Vanderben in the team have already received four yellow cards and Yves Bissouma three.
