Tottenham’s Dejan Kulusevski Opens Up on Cristiano Ronaldo’s Advice: "To Not Be Satisfied with Being Good, But to Be the Best Every Day"
Dejan Kulusevski has been one of the standout performers for Tottenham this season, and the Swedish international has attributed his recent success to the advice he received from none other than Cristiano Ronaldo. Speaking to a Swedish publication, Fotboll Skanalen, Kulusevski shared how he’s learned to take critical advice from the former Juventus star.
The 24-year-old winger has been instrumental in Tottenham’s success, with his pace, skill, and dribbling ability causing opposition defenders problems. However, it’s not just his on-field performances that have impressed, but also his remarkable progress as a person. Kulusevski has grown significantly as a player, and it’s clear that Ronaldo’s guidance has played a significant role in this transformation.
"Ronaldo told me, ‘You’ll get to know your body,’" Kulusevski recalled. "At 17, I didn’t understand. I didn’t know my body then. But now I’m starting to understand my strengths and weaknesses, how I can improve." He continued, "I know how to train the day before a match, two days before a match, what to do when I’m tired and so on. All the little details that in the end make a big difference."
This is not the first time we’ve seen glimpses of Kulusevski’s impressive growth. His performances have been improving steadily over the past 12 months, and his dedication to self-improvement is a testament to his professionalism. Even at just 24, the Tottenham star is eager to push himself to new heights, and it’s clear that Ronaldo’s advice has played a significant role in this journey.
As he continues to excel at both club and country level, fans will be eagerly watching to see what the future holds for this remarkable talent. Will Kulusevski continue to thrive under the guidance of his coaches and teammates? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – with his dedication and willingness to listen to counsel from experienced pros like Ronaldo, the best is yet to come for this talented young player.
