Dejan Kulusevski is in the form of his life right now for club and country, and he’s just helped Sweden to a big win over Estonia by providing an intricate and influential assist.
Since moving into a more central role with Tottenham, it’s safe to say Dejan Kulusevski has been on fire. The Swedish star’s creative juices are clearly flowing, and he’s now added another assist to his name for his country.
Sweden demolished Estonia 3-0 in their latest Nations League fixture to remain unbeaten in the competition over the two international breaks in September and October.
Kulusevski has even been captain for Sweden in those games, and his latest performance was another sterling outing for the Spurs man.
Picking up the ball just outside the six-yard box after some fine work down the left wing, Kulusevski used his incredible ball control to jinx past one defender, before playing an intricate pass across the line to beat three Estonia defenders.
His pass found Sporting Lisbon striker, Viktor Gyokeres, who made no mistake with an emphatic finish to round out the win for the Scandinavian team.

That assist rounded out a brilliant performance from Kulusevski, and the numbers behind the display say all that needs to be said about his impact.
As per data from StatMuse, Kulusevski had five shots in the game, one more than the entire Estonia team. He also made four successful take-ons to Estonia’s three, and created four chances to Estonia’s two. Perhaps most impressive, Kulusevski had a huge 15 touches in the opponent’s box, while Estonia managed just six.
While Brennan Johnson is stealing all the headlines with his goalscoring run right now, it has to be said that Dejan Kulusevski is arguably the Lilywhites’ best player at the moment. His overall game has been unbelievable, and he really appears to have found a new level of late.
