Luka Vušković Transfer from Hamburger SV to Tottenham Hotspur
Bild reports on the current status of Luka Vuskovic's loan to Hamburg from Tottenham, where he is on loan until the end of June. It is stated that it seems unlikely Tottenham will permit him to stay in Hamburg for another season. Luka Vuskovic has a contract in London until 2030. In 2023, Tottenham paid eleven million for the player, a defender who has a market value of 40 million euros.
According to Sportske Novosti, Luka Vušković's future after the summer will be decided in agreement with Tottenham, with whom he is under contract. The publication states that Tottenham have so far respected the player's wishes, and a meeting will be held with the club after June to decide what is best for him. It is not clarified whether Tottenham see Vušković exclusively as a future player or if they would be open to a transfer if an appropriate offer arrives.
According to fussballtransfers.com, citing Hamburger Abendblatt, Tottenham currently does not intend to terminate Luka Vušković's loan at Hamburg early. The club's management wants Luka Vušković to continue gaining experience in the Bundesliga and to develop as a player. This situation could change if one of Tottenham's central defenders is injured, which might lead Tottenham to consider recalling him earlier.
According to TeamTalk, Tottenham Hotspur has the option to end Luka Vuskovic's one-year loan at Hamburger SV in January and is seriously considering doing so. The report adds that Tottenham is looking for a new central defender and believes Vuskovic can play in the Premier League. Vuskovic told Hamburger Abendblatt that he has not talked to Tottenham about that, his focus is on HSV and he assumes he can stay there until the end of the season.
Sport Director Stefan Kuntz told 'Sport Bild' that he considers a permanent signing of Luka Vuskovic to be impossible, as the player will be even more expensive next year after his time at HSV than before the current season, and it is also uncertain if Tottenham would want to sell him.
Tottenham Hotspur can only recall loaned centre-back Luka Vuskovic from Hamburger SV in the winter if two Tottenham defenders suffer serious injuries. The severity of potential injuries is contractually stipulated, and a simple strain is not sufficient. Tottenham must inform Hamburger SV in the first half of January if they wish to recall the 18-year-old, and Hamburger SV would receive financial compensation in this case. According to Hamburger Morgenpost, it is Tottenham's wish that Vuskovic spends the entire season at Hamburger SV.
Tottenham could bring centre-back Luka Vušković back from his loan with Hamburg in January and integrate the 18-year-old into Thomas Frank’s first team, according to TBR Football.
Germanijak reports on Tottenham's plans regarding Vušković, with whom the club plans to sign a long-term contract. Reportedly, Spurs want to sign a new central defender in the winter, which would make it more difficult for the Croatian to play regularly. Allegedly, an early return is also being considered by the London club, as they could terminate the loan with HSV as early as January.
While Tottenham Hotspur has long-term plans for Luka Vušković, his situation is developing. According to 'Teamtalk', Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are monitoring the 18-year-old Croatian defender, who is currently on loan at Hamburger SV. At the same time, reports suggest the Spurs want to sign a new central defender in the winter. The Londoners are also reportedly considering an early recall for Vušković, as the club has an option to end the loan deal with HSV as early as January, which could lead to a sooner-than-expected move to the Premier League for the player. His contract with Tottenham runs until 2030, and his market value is currently estimated by Transfermarkt at €12 million.
