When can he join again!? Incoming Tottenham teenage defender Luka Vuskovic scores acrobatic wondergoal in Belgium amid Spurs' injury crisis ahead of Premier League switch

Teenage talent Luka Vuskovic cannot join struggling Tottenham soon enough as the incoming defender continues to impress in Belgium, scoring a mesmerising bicycle kick. Spurs confirmed the signing of the highly-rated 17-year-old from Hajduk Split in September 2023 but the signing came with a caveat - he was to stay at the Croatian outfit until 2025.

Vuskovic spent the second half of last season on loan at Polish side Rodamiak and this campaign at Belgian team K.V.C. Westerlo. The defender caught the attention of top British clubs including Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool after helping Hajduk win the Croatian Cup in 2023.

He also made his debut for the club aged 15 and became their youngest-ever goalscorer after finding the net just days after his 16th birthday. Tottenham might not have expected to regret the delayed arrival too much but a recent defensive crisis has made Vuskovic's electric form all the more painful for Ange Postecoglou.

Incoming Tottenham defender Luka Vuskovic scored an amazing goal on Boxing Day. The talent signed for Spurs in 2023 but remained at Hajduk Split and will move in 2025. Fellow loanee Alfie Devine also scored for KVC Westerlo in a 4-3 defeat against Club Brugge.

He struck his sixth league goal of the season for mid-table Westerlo against Club Brugge on Boxing Day and it was one to remember. A ball comes looping in from the left flank and finds Australian wide man Jordan Bos at the back post, who heads it back into the heart of the box.
