Dejan Kulusevski confesses he supports Arsenal

Old comments of Tottenham ace Dejan Kulusevski confessing his love and support for rivals Arsenal have surfaced.

According to SPORTbible, Kulusevski, who has two goals against City, made the admission during his time with Parma.

"My favourite team is Arsenal because I like everything about the club, the city, the players and the way they play football," he told Swedish Lundh podcast.

Kulusevski went on to hint at having a desire to play for the Gunners shortly after he joined Tottenham back in January 2022.

"There's one team I've always wanted to play for, and I think I will play there one day, but I don't want to say what team it is because it's sensitive stuff," he suggested.

The Swedish winger initially joined Spurs on loan before he made a permanent move to the London club.

Manchester City duo return from injury

Earlier, Sports Brief reported on Man City getting a double injury boost ahead of their Tottenham clash.

The duo of Nathan Ake and Jack Grealish will likely take part in the match after shaking off injury concerns.

Grealish missed his side's victory over Aston Villa through illness.
