Dejan Kulusevski has joked that Italian journalist Carlo Garganese enjoys the eye after the pair’s heated alternate on social media this week.
When Spurs snapped up Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur from Juventus in January, Garganese tweeted that the Swede had not dribbled previous a participant in two years and mocked Fabio Paratici for signing the pair.
The 21-year-old has actually confirmed his doubters incorrect, having made a superb begin to his Spurs profession.
The winger scored 5 instances and supplied eight assists for Antonio Conte’s males, taking part in an important position in serving to the club qualify for the Champions League (Transfermarkt).
Kulusevski took to Instagram this week to put up a video compilation of his time at Spurs and the video began with a screenshot of Garganese’s disparaging tweet about him.
Nevertheless, regardless of the winger’s spectacular performances for Spurs, the journalist doubled down on his preliminary assertion.
I don’t care if Kulusevski took a dribble at me (he by no means beats his man anyway) so that you Spursy followers can all cease tweeting me
Stand by what I stated 100pc
Spurs have 2 world class attackers who carry everybody and a genius coach. They’re nothing with out them

After some Spurs followers had a go at Garganese, the journalist then accused Kulusevski of inviting a social media pile on.
However many/most individuals wouldn’t be capable of take the abuse I’ve obtained from followers. You recognize what that may result in.
Not search for Kulusevski and Tottenham, and fairly worrying that is how a participant reacts to somebody joking he can’t dribble!

When requested about his beef with Garganese, Kulusevski instructed Sport Bladet: “It was only a coincidence that it grew to become him, subsequent time will probably be another person.
“I feel he enjoys it lots now, that everybody is speaking about him and he will get his 5 minutes of fame. He feels good about it, says Kulusevki concerning the video.”
When requested if he feels he has taken revenge on those that doubted him, the Swede responded: “It’s each methods. Doubters will at all times be all over the place. There have been many who believed in me too. The vital factor is that I really feel good. The others can say what they need.”
Spurs Internet Opinion
I actually don’t condone social media pile-ons. Nevertheless, when you have got a go at somebody on social media, it’s fully honest sport for that particular person to have a return.
Soccer is a sport of opinions and it will have been positive if Garganese had simply stated he doesn’t charge Kulusevski.
Nevertheless, the journalist’s tweet was fairly disparaging and the on-loan Tottenham man had each proper to reply within the method that he did.
