We are delighted to announce the permanent signing of Dejan Kulusevski from Juventus.

After joining the Club from the Serie A side in January, 2022, on an initial 18-month loan, the Sweden international has signed a contract that will run until 2028.

Good deal, needs to stop being so one dimensional though.

Evaluating him over the full course of his loan at Spurs, this is a very good deal for us. And hopefully he also feels buzzed or at least relieved not to be going back to Juve.

When we were really firing under Conte in the run in to the previous season, he was getting a goal or assist nearly every game. Great end product. That tailed off badly last year, but we know he has it in him to achieve a high level of consistent output.

Yeah, but lets just hope his numbers didn't drop down as a result of him being found out or something like that.

When he was at the top of his game he was indeed amazing, but the only player from last season which I'm not disappointed with is Bentancour, everyone else either gave up or couldn't care too much to put up a good fight,

Yeah, he doesn't strike me as a numbskull who won't evolve his game as others have become familiar with him. But an over-reliance on his left peg is something he'll have to resolve. I think he's deceptively quick and not as slow as others mention. He just has to improve his decision making so he has more variable dribbling, crossing and passing options rather than frequently going to ridiculous lengths to cut inside. Ange might help him there too and maybe not only keep him out on the left every game.

Also, you can't be unhappy with Kane last season surely. 30 league goals. Our best attacker and best midfielder most games (post Bentancur injury).

For all we criticize Levy (and most is justified), he has done well here to knock 5MM off the price. Structured over 6 years as well? That’s a great deal.

The lad is a game changer when given license to attack. If Ange likes his wingers to hug the touch line then he should make hay next season.

Please let Kulu play on the left Big Ange. With Porro on the right, the opposing defenders might get their hands full

Levy's May 2024 end-of-season message:

...and my thanks go to Ryan Mason for once again stepping in to lead the team through the last few games of the season. We will make a further announcement about the first-team coaching staff in due course. But on the financial side, we should take heart from the incredible upturn in club revenue, almost entirely due to an unprecedented increase in sales of hay. My personal thanks to Dejan Kulusevski for his tireless efforts to help us further diversify our income streams.

Like the boy.
Already showed his potential.
Served his apprenticeship to the country
the league
the Premiership
the club.
Not buying a pig in a poke.
Needs to recapture the heights again under Postie.
Cheap, flexible and a nice fella.
Is that what you young people call a 'no-brainer'?
