Luka Vuskovic is currently the talk of the town. During the city derby against FC St. Pauli, he clashed with opposing supporters, sparking heated discussions.

“I can’t say anything positive about these fans,” the young center-back declared after the match in a Sky interview. The reason for his agitation was banners from the brown-and-white supporters targeting his brother Mario, who is currently suspended for doping. On his way to the locker room, Vuskovic reportedly even spat against a wall, which led to a heated exchange of words with players and officials from the Kiezkicker.

While HSV coach Merlin Polzin showed full understanding for his protégé’s emotional reaction at the subsequent press conference, St. Pauli published a public statement on Saturday. “We expect players, coaches, and representatives of the clubs to behave appropriately and professionally: not to be easily provoked, not to insult fans, and not to cross boundaries such as spitting towards fans or on the floor and walls in the locker area,” the statement read, among other things.

Second Vuskovic Year at HSV a Done Deal?

But it’s not just this derby scandal that has sparked intense debate about Vuskovic. The second reason is much more pleasing from the perspective of HSV fans. According to Tottenham insider Paul O Keefe on X, the teenager will also play in Hamburg next season.

According to reports, Vuskovic has communicated that he does not yet feel ready for the challenges of the Premier League. He also wants to play for HSV together with his brother. Mario will be allowed to participate in official matches again in November 2026 after a four-year suspension, making him eligible for most of the 2026/2027 season.

Of course, this plan is not set in stone yet. But O Keefe, who is considered well-connected in Spurs circles, writes: “That definitely seems to be the plan.” In North London, the 18-year-old is under contract until 2030. If he were to return in the summer of 2027, he would still have three years left in white.
