Brighton launch £30m bid to sign Tottenham defender Luka Vuskovic
Brighton have launched a £30m bid to sign highly-rated 19-year-old defender Luka Vuskovic from Tottenham Hotspur.
The south coast club have made their move amid ongoing speculation regarding the teenager’s future in north London.
Spurs are reportedly eager to retain the centre-back and hope to negotiate a new contract before potentially sending him out on another loan.
Stellar spell in Germany
Interest in the prospect has intensified following a highly successful temporary stint in the Bundesliga with Hamburg.
During his time in Germany, the defender excelled and was ultimately crowned the division’s young player of the season.
The Croatian international is set to return to his parent club for pivotal talks following his upcoming involvement in the 2026 World Cup.
Intertwined transfer targets
This significant offer arrives as the two Premier League sides find themselves locked in parallel negotiations.
Tottenham have already seen two bids rejected for Seagulls centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke during the current transfer window.
Brighton have now responded with a firm counter-punch by targeting one of the London club’s most promising young assets.
Further developments are expected as both clubs look to resolve their respective defensive pursuits ahead of the new campaign.
