Dejan Kulusevski has admitted he doesn't see any harm in the Tottenham fans' chant about him and Daniel Levy.

Spurs supporters have made their opinions clear on Levy in recent weeks, with the north Londoners continuing to struggle in the Premier League.

Ange Postecoglou's side are winless in their previous seven league outings and while cup competitions have provided some respite, the pressure has started to mount on the Australian coach.

But Spurs fans have also directed plenty of anger in the direction of Levy, with "We want Levy out" ringing around the stadium during their recent defeat to Leicester City.

Another one of the ways they've decided to vent that frustration has been through a chant that goes: "We don't care about Levy, he don't care about me, all I care about is Kulusevski."

It's a clear pointed dig sent the way of the Tottenham fans, but when quizzed on his thoughts around the chant, Kulusevski kept a straight bat and toed the line with his response.

Speaking ahead of Thursday night's Europa League action, the Swedish international said: "I’m just playing football. If they see what I give, and they appreciate it, then I’m happy. That’s it."

While the debates around Spurs' ownership are likely to rumble on in the background, Postecoglou remains on thin ice after a shaky start to 2025.

The Tottenham board are still backing the ex-Celtic boss, as is Kulusevski himself, with the former Juventus ace stating: "I agree with him [on Postecoglou's style of play]. I think we can do big things in these last four months.

"Because we had games where we showed perfect football and football, not many teams can play in the world.

"We played beautiful against [Manchester] United, [Manchester] City away 4-0 and we're behind him."

Postecoglou has shown no signs of backing down during Spurs' recent rut, even though Tottenham fans have expressed concerns about the trajectory of the club under his tutelage.

Addressing the anger, Postecoglou said: "My message would be to all Spurs fans because I represent them all not just the angry ones that you are referring to or maybe talking to. All Spurs fans, we are working hard to turn this around.

"Obviously we know the situation, notwithstanding the fact the possibilities and opportunities in the second half of this season are still very much in our hands to capitalise on and still make it a successful season."

Tottenham take on IF Elfsborg in the final league phase fixture of this year's Europa League on Thursday.
