Tottenham Hotspur completed an agreement last summer with Croatian teenage defender Luka Vuskovic, who is set to join the club in 2025 under a contract running until 2030.
The deal with HNK Hajduk Split was reportedly estimated to be worth around £12 million.
Earlier in January, Vuskovic embarked on a loan spell at Polish club Radomiak Radom, which will last until the end of the season.
The 17-year-old has shown promise during his loan spell, making 8 appearances in the Polish top-flight Ekstraklasa thus far.
He started in 7 of those games, scoring 2 goals and providing an assist, which is impressive for a centre-back. (Transfermarkt)
Another solid performance from Vuskovic against Rakow
The young defender continued to display his talent, delivering another solid performance in Radom’s recent 2-1 league victory over Rakow on Friday evening.
During his 90 minutes on the pitch, Vuskovic completed 18 out of 21 passes with an accuracy rate of 86%, which included 3 out of 4 long balls. Additionally, 4 of these passes were made in the final third of the pitch.
The Croatian talent, standing at 6 ft 4 in, made a total of 12 clearances, 7 of which were executed with headers. Impressively, he won 100% of his aerial duels, showcasing his dominance in the air.
Vuskovic’s complete performance also included 5 ball recoveries, contributing significantly to Radom’s victory over the formidable 3rd-placed Rakow.

TBH Says:
Tottenham fans have all the reasons to be excited about this signing. He has all the attributes of a top-class defender.
We may already have found ourselves another Micky van de Ven.
