Insider feels Tottenham recruitment team have struck gold with ‘absolutely insane’ player

John Wenham has praised Tottenham’s recruitment team for securing a deal for Croatian sensation Luka Vušković.

Ange Postecoglou and technical director Johan Lange have made major changes to Tottenham’s transfer approach. The North London club now focus on signing young players with huge potential. They have added quite a few young stars to their squad in recent seasons and another teenage sensation, Luka Vuskovic, is all set to move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer of 2025.

Spurs struck a deal worth £12 million with Hajduk Split in the summer of 2023 for the services of the Croatian defensive sensation. Vuskovic is currently on a season-long loan at Belgian club Westerlo and people at the North London club are quite happy with his progress. Spurs podcast Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham is delighted to see the 17-year-old adapt to life in Belgium without much difficulty and he praised Tottenham for signing the incredible defensive talent.

He said while speaking on Tottenham News: “He seems to move to these different clubs and countries and slots in with complete ease,”

“It seems like everywhere he goes he becomes the star player. That is crazy for a 17-year-old, absolutely insane. He already has four league goals with Westerlo.

“He keeps scoring these massive, powerful headers, pushing people out the way who are much older than him, he’s incredible.”

“Well done to the recruitment team for getting that deal over the line and agreeing a contract until 2030.”

Vuskovic will be making the move to Tottenham after he turns 18. He has already had the experience of playing in the Croatian, Belgian and Polish top flight. Given how quickly he has adjusted to the different leagues, the teenager is unlikely to have much difficulty getting used to the Premier League.

Wenham has been closely following his progress and he is delighted to see the teenager establish himself as a star everywhere he goes.

While he is a centre-back, he has four goals and an assist in his 10 outings for the Belgian club. His ariel ability stands out and the Lilywhite Rose owner feels Tottenham’s recruitment team have done a great job to secure his services until 2030. It will be interesting to see if he is thrown into the first team straight away because he surely has the potential to be a special player.
