Dejan Kulusevski has opened up about the dramatic road back to fitness that nearly cost him his football career, according to Yahoo Sports. The Tottenham attacker spent 17 months sidelined with injury, a stretch long enough to make him question whether he would play again.

Kulusevski credited a shift in how his body processed movement and recovery, describing it as a change to his nervous system that ultimately allowed him to return to action with Spurs. He said the breakthrough changed how he felt physically once he got back on the pitch.

The winger's comments highlight just how serious the long layoff was, even as he now looks to reestablish himself in Tottenham's lineup after such an extended absence.
