Tottenham have early Kulusevski buy-out clause with Juventus

Tottenham Hotspur could purchase Dejan Kulusevski from Juventus early this summer for €30m, according to The Guardian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, as well as the mandatory clause for €35m in 2023.

The precise details of the complex loan deal have not been clarified, so reports continue to emerge over what exactly the two clubs decided.

What we do know for certain is that Spurs paid €10m in January to take him on loan until June 2023 with the full salary paid over that period.

There is also an obligation to buy for €35m in 2023 if certain conditions are met, which are believed to be if Kulusevski plays 50 per cent of their Premier League matches for at least 45 minutes and Tottenham qualify for the Champions League.

However, it now seems as if Antonio Conte’s club have an option to make the move permanent this summer.

They can pay a reduced fee of €30m and buy him outright, which may well go through, seeing as the Sweden international has made a big impact in London and rediscovered his confidence.

He turns 22 next month and already has two goals and four assists in 11 competitive games for Spurs.

Buying early would also be a huge benefit for Juventus, who can get an influx of cash just after purchasing Dusan Vlahovic from Fiorentina.
