Group Chat Passes Motion On Kulusevski 500-Day Return And Refers Kneecap To Subcommittee

A WhatsApp group of eleven Tottenham supporters has adopted a formal position on the return of Dejan Kulusevski to an 11-a-side training match, following a sitting on the top deck of a London bus on Thursday morning.

The group, which meets daily between Stockwell and the City, heard that the Sweden international had played at Hotspur Way against a side of Under-21s and Under-18s. The report was understood to have originated with the Daily Mail and reached the chat via Standard Sport, a route the chair, who held a flask throughout, described as two stops, which is normal.

He's played football. Whether it counted is for the subcommittee.

Motion one noted that Kulusevski had not played for club or country since May 2025 and had undergone two surgeries on a kneecap over ten months. Motion two noted that it is not clear how many minutes he played. The chat resolved to record this as ninety minutes, pending clarification.

A member raised the earlier setback, when his return to first-team training was paused. He was thanked for his contribution and asked to put it in writing.

The chair then read out the wider list, Van de Ven's finger, Van Hecke's foot and Porro's hamstring, in the tone of a man reading casualty returns, and moved that the group keep an eye on the lot of it. Carried.

A request to describe Kulusevski as back was refused on the grounds that the word is reserved for competitive fixtures. Members were reminded that Tottenham are bottom with two points and travel to Old Trafford on Saturday evening, a matter the chair ruled was not before the meeting.

It is understood he has been seen vertical.

The session closed at Bank. The subcommittee has not yet been formed.
