Fabrizio Romano has delivered the exact update Tottenham fans were waiting for.

Tottenham’s ambitious summer transfer window is a major reason they’ve managed to stay competitive this season. They may be frustrated sitting in 11th place, but without those heavy summer investments, things could have been far worse.

Signings like Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons and Randal Kolo Muani have been among Spurs’ standout performers, yet much of the discussion still revolves around the departure of Son Heung-min, whose attacking influence has proved difficult to replace.

But Son wasn’t the only notable exit—and Spurs fans have just received some encouraging news about another player who left during the summer.

Fabrizio Romano Issues a Reminder to Spurs Supporters

Fabrizio Romano has reassured Tottenham fans that Luka Vusković remains firmly in the club’s long-term plans. The transfer insider revealed that Spurs are closely tracking the young defender’s loan spell at Hamburg, where he continues to impress and is still regarded as a key future asset for the club.

Romano stated:
“Tottenham are constantly monitoring Luka Vusković’s progress at HSV Hamburg and are very happy with his performances on loan. The 18-year-old centre-back is seen as an important part of the club’s long-term project. He has made 13 appearances with 2 goals so far.”

Vusković has already had a taste of Tottenham action, scoring during preseason, and he has enjoyed a strong campaign in Germany with 11 Bundesliga starts—none of which he’s been substituted in. He also delivered for Croatia over the international break.

It’s clear Spurs have a potential star in Vusković. His decision to go out on loan was driven by his desire for regular minutes, something he likely could have earned at Tottenham given the club’s defensive issues—but no one could have predicted those circumstances.

Recognized as one of the brightest young defenders in world football, Vusković looks destined for a major career, and Spurs hope they can keep him satisfied and committed.

For supporters, this update is refreshing. Modern loan moves often signal an eventual exit, but Tottenham’s continued focus on Vusković within their long-term planning is a promising sign.
