Tottenham have agreed to sign Croatian talent Luka Vuskovic, but he will not arrive for some time.
Tottenham are likely to recruit highly regarded teenage defender Luka Vuskovic.
A number of clubs, including Liverpool, Chelsea, PSG, and Manchester City, have been connected with the tall centre-back.
Vuskovic broke into the Hajduk Split first team in the spring despite just turning 16 in February, and he helped his team win the Croatian Cup. Just five days after his 16th birthday, he became Hajduk’s youngest-ever goalscorer during that campaign.
Spurs have won the race to sign him after a breakthrough in negotiations over the weekend, with personal conditions agreed.
Vuskovic will stay with Hajduk until he reaches 18 to complete his development before moving to north London. That means his relocation is scheduled during the summer of 2025.
The transfer fee is unknown, however it is thought to be in the region of £15 million.

The Spurs project appears to be very promising even without Harry Kane when you see James Maddison progressing so quickly, competing with superior players in his environment, and currently thriving for England.
James Maddison will play up front on the left side for England vs. Ukraine, and he already has demonstrated his adaptability by playing centrally behind Hueng-Min Son for Spurs and scoring one goal and setting up another against Burnley.
With four defenders, a middle space with two laying players and one man in front, and a wide area with just one forward to play up front, Ange Postecoglou is allowing his players freedom. observed on a model
