£13M BAYERN MUNICH TARGET WANTS TO SIGN FOR TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR INSTEAD
Luka Vuskovic is expected to join Tottenham Hotspur despite Bayern Munich’s interest in the Hajduk Split defender.
Instead of moving to Tottenham Hotspur, Luka Vuskovic, who might have joined Harry Kane at Bayern Munich, instead going to Tottenham.
According to 90min, Vuskovic is allegedly turning down interest from a number of prominent European clubs.
According to reports, Bayern Munich and Barcelona spoke with Vuskovic’s representatives in preparation for a prospective deal.
Even earlier in the year, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain made bids, but Vuskovic has since made up his mind.
Hajduk offered Vuskovic the freedom to choose his next destination, allowing him to reject Bayern and choose Tottenham instead.
Harry Kane’s chance to join Luka Vuskovic at Bayern Munich is turned down.Even before all the other interested teams were revealed, the news of Vuskovic joining Tottenham was fantastic.
The 16-year-old has become one of Europe’s best wonderkids and has already appeared in a few games for Hajduk’s first squad.
Those stars typically leave for other teams, but Tottenham is poised to pull off a spectacular heist, leaving fans awestruck.
This is made more sweeter by the fact that Bayern had negotiations with Vuskovic, who ultimately decided against playing with Harry Kane in Bavaria.
Kane left Tottenham to join Bayern in their pursuit of championships, but Spurs supporters will view Vuskovic’s transfer choice as a slight victory over the dominant German club.
How much are Tottenham paying to sign Luka Vuskovic? The report notes that Tottenham have now agreed a deal worth around £13million, a price tag which was met by a number
of clubs. Vuskovic has picked Tottenham though, and this is a major deal for Spurs. £13million for a 16-year-old is bold, but even more so when you factor in that Vuskovic can’t
even play for Tottenham until 2025. Post-Brexit rules mean that English clubs cannot sign overseas talent before the age of 18, so Vuskovic faces a long wait for a Tottenham debut.
Tottenham will be convinced that they have bought a potential star despite spending this type of money on a young boy who won’t even play for the club for the better part of two years.
