Why is Dejan Kuluvsevski wearing a mask against Newcastle?

DEJAN KULUVSEVSKI will be hoping he is the difference maker for Tottenham in their thrilling match against Newcastle – and fans have spotted his new look.

Spurs have lost FOUR out of their last five matches after losing to West Ham on Wednesday.

Dejan Kuluvsevski will have to wear a mask for the foreseeable futureRex

However, the Magpies will also be wounded going into this match as Newcastle were thrashed 3-0 by relegation battlers Everton on the same day.

And Kulusevski is hoping to pile further pressure on the Magpies even in his new mask.

Why is Dejan Kuluvsevski wearing a mask against Newcastle?

Dejan Kuluvsevski has been forced to wear a mask after breaking his nose in the midweek loss to West Ham.

Cristian Romero fired Spurs ahead with an early header as they looked to end this torrid run.

But Jarrod Bowen’s levelled the scoreline after serious misfortune on Spurs’ part, as an unlikely double deflection put the ball right in his path with only the keeper to beat.

And James Ward-Prowse – often a Tottenham target over the years – profited from an awful backpass from Destiny Udogie to seal the three points for the Hammers.
