The Swedish midfielder has not played since he suffered a serious knee injury in May 2025.
"Kulusevski (is) on the bench. We had a meeting with the medical staff. They gave the OK and it's great news," Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi told reporters on Sunday.
"Deki, he suffered too much," he added. "He deserves to feel emotion on the pitch," he said.
