Tottenham give the green light: Vuskovic joins HSV | OneFootball

The wish of many HSV fans seems to be coming true: Luka Vuskovic is moving to the Elbe on a loan basis for one season!

A weeks-long chewing gum poker is nearing its end: As transfer insider Fabrizio Romano reported on Wednesday morning, Tottenham Hotspur has given HSV the green light for a loan of Luka Vuskovic. Accordingly, the 18-year-old will play on loan at Volkspark next season. The Athletic confirmed this report shortly after. Only the medical check and the contract signature are missing.

Since the Spurs see Vuskovic as a mega-talent and a key part of their future plans, it is unsurprising that the northern club does not receive a purchase option. Rather, the young Croatian is expected to be an immediate reinforcement in the anticipated battle for survival. The plan of the HSV bosses is: As the right part of the newly installed three-man defense, the teenager will compete with Warmed Omari for a starting spot.

Vuskovic transfer before the derby?

The transfer has not been officially confirmed at this point. However, in recent days, not least the Mopo reported that HSV had set an internal deadline for a Vuskovic transfer. By the city derby against FC St. Pauli on Friday evening (8:30 PM, Sky), the matter should be fully resolved.

According to Romano's report, this plan could indeed be put into action. But even if the deal goes through by then, Vuskovic is unlikely to be an option for play this weekend.

Because: The brother of the doping-banned fan favorite Mario Vuskovic completed the entire preparation with the Spurs. In the test matches, he left a convincing impression and recommended himself for an immediate squad place.

Given the great competition in central defense, a renewed loan was decided in North London. Already in the past season, Vuskovic played for the Belgian first division club KVC Westerlo. There, the youngster impressed with strong performances and scored no less than seven goals. Among experts, the right-footer is considered one of the greatest defensive talents in all of Europe!
