Real Madrid, always attentive to young international talents, has set its sights on Luka Vuskovic, a promising 17-year-old center back who has already secured his transfer to Tottenham for next summer. Despite his youth, the Croatian defender has caught the attention of several elite clubs, and the Merengues see him as a future star who could strengthen their defense in the coming years.
Developed in the youth academy of Hajduk Split in his country, Vuskovic has impressed throughout his youth career, leading Spurs to secure his transfer early. However, due to his age, Vuskovic won't be able to officially join the English club until he turns 18, giving Real Madrid time to assess his potential closely. Compared to Josko Gvardiol, one of the best center backs in the world today and a key player in Pep Guardiola's Manchester City, Vuskovic has shown similar qualities, especially in his defensive and offensive capabilities.
Real Madrid continues to search for young talents for the future
Currently, the Croatian prodigy is on loan at KVC Westerlo, where he has had a standout start to the season. In 10 games, he has contributed four goals and an assist, an impressive record for a center back, highlighting his versatility and ability to influence both ends of the field. This performance has reinforced Real Madrid's interest, as they may be seeking a long-term replacement for players like David Alaba, who has suffered a new injury that could prompt the Merengues to look for short-term solutions.
Although Vuskovic already has an agreement with Tottenham, the white club does not rule out monitoring his progress closely and evaluating possible future moves. However, luring the young Croatian away from London will not be an easy task, and Real Madrid will have to be patient if they want to add the prodigy to their squad.
