Tottenham footballer faces driving ban after being caught speeding
- Tottenham Hotspur winger Dejan Kulusevski faces a six-month driving ban after pleading guilty to speeding in his Audi.
- The 26-year-old Swedish international was caught driving at 43mph in a 30mph zone through the Limehouse Link tunnel in September last year.
- Reaching at least 12 penalty points on his licence puts the footballer at risk of an automatic disqualification.
- Kulusevski wrote to the court pleading mitigating circumstances, explaining he needs to drive his young family and travel home from late-night away games.
- The case has been referred for a sentencing hearing on 21 September at Barkingside Magistrates’ Court, where he must prove exceptional hardship to avoid a ban.
