Tottenham have suffered a major blow with the hamstring injury of Dejan Kulusevski ahead of Saturday’s North London derby.

During the international break, the Swede started both games as his country faced Serbia and Slovenia.

He played the entire 90 minutes in both games, but he has returned to the club with a hamstring injury and is now a major doubt for this weekend’s match against Arsenal.

The Athletic reports that Spurs doctors are keeping a close eye on the situation.

Kulusevski, who is set to sign a permanent deal with the club for £31 million in the summer, has been in excellent form this season, scoring once and assisting three times in six Premier League appearances.

Spurs could also reportedly be without their key star Hugo Lloris this weekend in what is said to be a ‘huge blow‘ for Conte’s team.

In better Tottenham news, Kane, Son Heung-min, and Richarlison all scored for their respective countries during the international break and all report back to club duties fully fit.
