Tottenham complete Vuskovic deal but he won't join until 2025 - Romano
Tottenham have completed the agreement to sign teenage defender Luka Vuskovic from Hajduk Split, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The Italian journalist, taking to his personal X account on Monday morning (25 September) shares that the deal is now sealed on both sides and the 16-year-old will join his new club in 2025.
Evening Standard reported on Sunday 10 September that the deal could cost around £12m after several Premier League clubs sent scouts to watch him in action last season, including Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester City and Chelsea.
Romano posted on Monday: "Exclusive: Tottenham have completed the agreement to sign Luka Vusković from Hajduk Split, here we go confirmed — done deal."
Ex-Spurs Scout Bryan King tells Tottenham News:
"I know the Croatian market really well, and all the young players coming through over there. I have also spoken to a lot of people who know the kid and have followed his development in the last few years.
"Yes, he is a talent but from what I hear he is not quite as good as what Tottenham and his agents are making out. He also won't be joining Tottenham for two years, and a lot can happen between now and then, especially with a young player who is still developing.
"There has been talk that five or six of the big Premier League clubs have been racing to sign Vuskovic. Take that with a pinch of salt. It's classic agent talk and it's pretty obvious where all these stories are coming from."
