Tottenham Hotspur winger Dejan Kulusevski has admitted to speeding in his Audi while driving through the Limehouse Link tunnel in London last September. The 26-year-old Swedish international, who missed much of the previous season and the 2026 World Cup due to injury, pleaded guilty to the offense in a court process known as the Single Justice Procedure. Kulusevski was caught driving at 43mph in a 30mph zone on September 28 of last year, according to a camera recording. The Metropolitan Police has informed the court that this offense adds to previous points on his license, potentially bringing his total to 12 penalty points, which could lead to a six-month driving ban. Kulusevski sent an email to the court explaining that he was unable to attend the hearing in person because he is currently in training following a year-long injury. He requested that the court consider "mitigating circumstances" in his appeal. Kulusevski mentioned that his family relies on him for transportation to appointments and emergencies, and that he often has to drive late at night after away games. He also acknowledged that his speeding was "mostly just over the varying speed limits in London areas," though he admitted he was indeed speeding. The footballer, who has scored 25 goals for Tottenham since joining in 2022, is now preparing for a sentencing hearing on September 21 at Barkingside Magistrates' Court. If the court decides to impose a driving ban, Kulusevski would have the option to appeal, but only if he can prove that such a ban would cause "exceptional hardship." This could include showing that his ability to work or care for his family would be significantly affected. Kulusevski’s case highlights the challenges faced by high-profile individuals who are subject to the same traffic laws as the general public. While his situation is unique due to his professional commitments, the court will assess whether his circumstances justify an exception to the standard penalties for speeding offenses. The outcome could have significant implications for his personal life and career, given his reliance on a car for both professional and family obligations.
