On March 26, Sweden faces a pivotal World Cup playoff semifinal match against Ukraine. However, the team must prepare to take the field without one of its standout players.
Dejan Kulusevski, who has been sidelined for several months due to injury, is reportedly facing a longer recovery than anticipated. According to Aftonbladet, Kulusevski has yet to overcome his knee injury and remains far from returning to active play on the pitch.
Despite this setback, there is a glimmer of hope that the Tottenham star could still be part of the squad—though likely in a supporting role as team captain, encouraging his teammates from the sidelines. Graham Potter is set to finalize his roster on March 18, as anticipation builds for this crucial encounter.
