Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is taking a close look at the eating habits of Dejan Kulusevski.
The Daily Express says Conte has altered Kulusevski's diet in order to improve his performance levels at the club by banning him from certain treats.
Since arriving from Juventus at the start of the year, Conte has put a stop to Kulusevski from consuming sweets and sugary drinks. And it may already be proving its worth following the 21-year-old's start to life at the club as Spurs chase Champions League qualification.
The winger has effortlessly slotted into the right side of Tottenham's front three alongside Harry Kane and Son Heung-min and the trio have been an integral part to their side's revival over the past two months, in which they have catapulted themselves into the top four.
Conte has banned the whole Spurs squad from sugary drinks, as well as condiments, yet he added sweets to Kulusevski's list, who reportedly had a bad habit of chewing gum when starting out at Atalanta before his move to Juventus.
He now only drinks cold still water or protein drinks in addition to other recommended alternatives.
