BAYERN MUNICH’S £13M TARGET WOULD LIKE TO SIGN FOR TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR INSTEAD Tottenham Hotspur is ready to sign Luka Vuskovic, despite Bayern Munich’s interest in the Hajduk Split defender.
Luka Vuskovic, who might have joined Harry Kane at Bayern Munich, is instead joining Tottenham Hotspur.
According to 90min, Vuskovic is turning down interest from a slew of major European clubs.
According to reports, Barcelona and Bayern Munich met with Vuskovic’s representatives in preparation for a prospective deal.
Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain made bids earlier this year, but Vuskovic has decided.
Vuskovic decided to join Tottenham after Hajduk granted him the freedom to choose his future club, allowing him to reject Bayern Munich.
Luka Vuskovic turns on the opportunity to join Harry Kane at Bayern Munich.
Before all of the other interested teams were announced, the news of Vuskovic joining Tottenham was thrilling enough.
The 16-year-old has emerged as one of Europe’s best wonderkids, having already appeared in a handful of first-team games for Hajduk.
Those stars generally go elsewhere, but Tottenham is on the verge of a massive coup, leaving fans ecstatic.
The fact that Bayern were also interested in signing Vuskovic only adds to the defender’s decision to reject the opportunity to team up with Harry Kane in Bavaria.
Kane has left Tottenham to pursue titles with Bayern Munich, but Spurs fans will see Vuskovic’s choice as a little victory over the German giants.
How much did Tottenham spend for Luka Vuskovic?
According to the source, Tottenham have now agreed to a transaction of roughly £13 million, a price tag that has been fulfilled by a number of clubs.
Vuskovic, on the other hand, has chosen Tottenham, and this is a significant deal for the club.
£13 million for a 16-year-old is risky, but it’s much riskier when you consider Vuskovic won’t be able to play for Tottenham until 2025.
Because English clubs cannot sign abroad talent under the age of 18, Vuskovic will have to wait a long time for his Tottenham debut.
Investing this much money in a young boy who will not even play for the club for the next two years is incredible, but Tottenham will be convinced that they have secured a future star.
