Vuskovic to join HSV this week? Here’s what Merlin Polzin says! | OneFootball

A commitment from Luka Vuskovic has come within reach in recent days. Will HSV complete the deal soon?

The news from transfer insider Fabrizio Romano caused excitement among many HSV fans over the weekend: the Italian journalist announced that the loan of Luka Vuskovic to the Rothosen was close to being finalized. Immediately, new euphoria emerged in Hamburg.

Because: the 18-year-old center-back from Tottenham Hotspur is the desired solution for the Bundesliga promoted team's defense. He is considered one of the greatest talents in all of Europe. Vuskovic, the younger brother of the suspended Mario Vuskovic, has been at the top of the list of those responsible for some time. According to Abendblatt information, HSV has been in agreement with the player for weeks, and Tottenham would also take over a significant part of the salary in the event of a loan.

The decisive factor is now the attitude of the Spurs. President Daniel Levy is said to have discussed the talent's future in internal talks on Saturday. However, a final feedback to HSV was not received until Sunday. The fact that Vuskovic sat on the bench during the surprising 2-0 win against Manchester City on the same day shows: the youngster has chances for the professional squad, but currently, it's not enough for regular playing time.

Vuskovic to HSV? Polzin: "We know what we want to do"

However, the HSV defense presented itself in an excellent condition at the Bundesliga debut against Borussia Mönchengladbach (0:0), even in the absence of the young Croatian. The three-man defense around Daniel Elfadli, Warmed Omari, and Jordan Torunarigha made a significantly more solid impression than in the test matches, all of which were lost.

Nevertheless,! the Hanseatic team wants to sign another defender by Deadline Day. When asked about possible new signings, Merlin Polzin explained after the game at the DAZN microphone: "We keep our eyes open and know what we still want to do."

However, the 34-year-old did not want to reveal any more details. "We enjoy today's game, and then we'll see what happens next week," said Polzin evasively. It's at least conceivable that Vuskovic could become an HSV player in the coming days.
