James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski are having to support one another through long-term injuries, and the pair are working together during rehab.

Maddison and Kulusevski are likely to both be sidelined until the New Year as they look to overcome serious injuries.

Maddison suffered an ankle injury during pre-season, meanwhile, Kulusevski has been out since May with a knee injury.

Tottenham Hotspur’s midfielders have now sent a clear message to supporters as they continue to step up their recoveries.

James Maddison’s injury update with Dejan Kulusevski

James Maddison has taken to social media to share an injury update with Dejan Kulusevski, as the pair complete a gym session together.

The pair had to watch on at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday evening as Spurs defeated Villarreal 1-0 in the Champions League.

The day after the match, Maddison posted an image of himself in the gym with the Swedish captain, with the caption: “We’re hungry. Let’s eat in (in the gym).”

The Swede is expected to return well before Maddison, with reports claiming Kulusevski will be back in December.

Michael Dawson is ‘devastated’ by Maddison’s injury, with the 28-year-old expected to miss the majority of the season.

This should have been a huge season for the England international, making his debut in the Champions League and the World Cup next summer.

Tottenham signed Xavi Simons last month to replace Maddison, but the North London club will be hopeful that his time in the capital is not over yet.

Dejan Kulusevski’s injury return could transform Thomas Frank’s Tottenham

Kulusevski’s injury return could transform Thomas Frank’s Tottenham, as the attacker could be the missing piece from the team.

The 25-year-old could allow Mohammed Kudus or Simons to play in the number ten position, or he could even play the role himself.

Simons has struggled out on the left, so having another elite winger added back to the squad in Kulusevski could be huge for Frank.

The Swedish national team managed 10 goals and 11 assists in all competitions last season, highlighting his sheer quality.
