Wow! Massive if true. If he returns fully fit and at the same level as before the injury, that's like a new £60-70m signing.

Yep, maybe higher.

He’s a real difference maker. Strong, excellent technique and a good finisher. I’ve mentioned on here before I think his best position maybe centrally in a 9/10 hybrid role similar to Havertz.

2024/25 we were the Kuluveski team.

He's been gone for so long, many have forgotten how good he has become in that central berth and had usurped the role from Maddison.

Really good to hear that he's back.

Memory might be playing tricks on me, but didn't he play through the middle up top a few times and look good?

He did a decent job hold up and link play wise but he doesn't really offer the threat of a striker when he played there.

I think he could be effective in a CF role against a low block where his lack of pace wouldn’t be exposed. Good at playing with his back to goal and bringing others into the game, while also able to beat his man and use his physicality to get on the end of crosses.

Against a mid or high block he could play RW or #10, where he can press their defenders and also provide an outlet for when we are in possession.

This was 24/25.

Imagine the noise at the stadium when Deki when #21 goes up on the board.

Does this mean that he could start against Brentford? Would love him to start the season as our number 10. Would be like a new signing. Missed the guy a lot last season.

I think that would be a strech. Different injury but Dragusin was back in training in October and did not start a game until February.

But Kulusevski has been training for a while and now been integrated into first team training? Albeit whilst the rest of the squad are the other side of the World.

Yes thats the same timeframe.

Aslong as he is not playing on the wing (unless its against City) than i am all for it.
