Alongside 7 Bayern players: HSV star named in team of the season! | OneFootball

Great honor for Luka Vuskovic! The HSV defender has been rewarded with another accolade for his strong season.

Vuskovic, who has already won the “Bundesliga Rookie of the Month” award four times, can now also call himself part of the legendary “Team of the Season.” Every year at the end of a season, the football simulation EA FC announces the best players in the league. The vote is based on a fan poll.

Out of a total of 40 pre-nominated players, eleven made the team – including Vuskovic. The Croatian now joins world-class defenders Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, and Nico Schlotterbeck. The Hamburg man finished ahead of other high-profile stars such as Edmond Tapsoba, Konrad Laimer, and David Raum.

Notably, Vuskovic was the only player to make the “Team of the Season” whose team sits in the bottom half of the table. Alongside seven Bayern stars (Dayot Upamecano, Jonathan Tah, Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic, Michael Olise, Luis Diaz, Harry Kane), the fans also chose two Dortmund players (Gregor Kobel, Nico Schlotterbeck) and one Stuttgart player (Angelo Stiller).

HSV jewel Vuskovic can hope for another award

The website Bundesliga.de writes about Vuskovic’s selection: “Whether on the ground or in the air: no one wins as many duels, and only a few defenders pose a comparable attacking threat. Luka Vuskovic has developed at Hamburger SV into one of the Bundesliga’s biggest breakout stars. Despite being only 19, the Tottenham Hotspur loanee is already among the most exciting defensive talents in Europe.” The league also credits the teenager with the potential “to develop into one of the best defenders in the world in the coming years.”
