After weeks of speculation, it was recently confirmed that South Korean sensation Yang Min-hyeok is set to join Tottenham earlier than expected.
And now the club have received news of another player they have already signed that they could see at Houtspur Way earlier than anticipated.
After Yang Min-hyeok, Luka Vušković set to arrive at Tottenham earlier than planned
As reported by Football London, Croatian defender Luka Vušković will be able to join Tottenham on the first day of pre-season next summer.
The 17-year-old was part of the Croatia U21 side that lost to Georgia U21 in the Euro U21 qualifying round in the recent international break and will therefore not play in the tournament proper in the summer. He will thus be free to join Tottenham on day one.
Currently on loan at Belgian side Westerlo for the season, Vušković was signed by Tottenham from parent club Hajduk Split last year for €11 million.
The teenager’s performances for De Kemphanen have already brought him plaudits this season. Likened to future teammate Micky van de Ven, Vušković has made 15 club appearances this season, registering four goals and an assist.
Few days ago, it was confirmed that Yang Min-hyeok, another teenage signing that was secured beforehand, would move to North London a month before his previously agreed-upon joining date.
The sooner, the better
Next season, Spurs are likely to lose at least one of Cristian Romero and Van de Ven given how the rest of the season goes. With the likes of Ben Davies and Radu Drăgușin also exit-linked, it’s all the better that Vušković can now join earlier, barring any injury issues, of course.
The 17-year-old already looks like a sensational piece of business on the Lilywhites’ end, and one can’t wait to see how he adapts to life in the Premier League.
