Tottenham Hotspur have placed themselves in a horrible situation.
Ange Postecoglou confidently predicted winning a title at the start of the season, and that may still happen. However, Spurs have been quite awful over the last two months.
The North Londoners are now 11th in the Premier League table, closer to the relegation zone than the top four.
Tottenham must make changes as soon as feasible; otherwise, its finest players may begin to consider other possibilities. One of them has already started to consider his future.
Dejan Kulusevski is ‘thinking of quitting’ Tottenham
Dejan Kulusevski has been with Tottenham for over three years.
The Swede joined Spurs on loan, but his agreement was made permanent in 2023. He has been an important player for the North Londoners since, putting up some incredible performances.

Dejan Kulusevski | 28 | 7 | 8 |
Ben Foster remarked that Kulusevski is Tottenham’s ‘best player’ this season, and countless others agreed after witnessing his exploits.
According to Milan Live, AC Milan is interested in signing Kulusevski, and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who works as an advisor at the Italian club, has’started discussions’ with his countryman about a possible transfer.
According to the source, Kulusevski is ‘thinking of leaving’ Tottenham due to his team’s poor form.
It has also been stated that Tottenham will seek at least €50 million (£41.5 million) to allow Kulusevski leave.
What should Tottenham do if they get bids for Kulusevski?
Reject them all!
Kulusevski is the only Tottenham player who has performed well under Postecoglou since the beginning of the season. Without him, Spurs would be in an even worse situation.
We wouldn’t be shocked if other clubs expressed interest in the 24-year-old, but Tottenham are in a solid position because he is under contract until the summer of 2028.
We simply cannot imagine Daniel Levy accepting a bid for the Swede in 2025, but Tottenham must perform significantly better than they have in recent years if they are to keep him satisfied.
If they don’t, Kulusevski may seek a move away from the club to pursue his goals, like Harry Kane and Gareth Bale have in the past.
