Tottenham fans stunned by what Luka Vuskovic just did to Cristian Romero
Tottenham supporters have been left stunned by just how physically imposing Luka Vuskovic is, even compared to vice-captain Cristian Romero.
Tottenham Hotspur fans have already had a glimpse of their new centre-back Luka Vuskovic, who linked up with the rest of the Spurs squad this summer window.
Vuskovic featured for Tottenham during pre-season, playing forty-five minutes in the clash against Reading, where he impressed in all facets of the game.
The towering centre-back helped his team keep a clean sheet and also chipped in with a goal and an assist in his brief but eye-catching cameo.
Spurs signed Vuskovic from Hadjuk Split two seasons ago for 12m, when he was 16, and with the centre-back now 18, he is finally eligible to play for the Lilywhites.
Tottenham fans react to Luka Vuskovic’s height in training
Tottenham fans have been pleased with their new signing and will be hoping to see more of him during the remainder of pre-season.
Still, the Croatian centre-back continues to grab attention for his sheer size, with many Tottenham supporters in awe of just how tall the 18-year-old is.
Taking to X, one Tottenham fan said: “This kid Vuskovic is an absolute tank… Unit!!”
Another supporter asked: “How big is Luka? He is built like a rugby player. Imagine a back three of him, Romero and Van de Ven. Brick wall!”
A third was quick to compare the youngster to a rival club’s centre-back: “Honestly, seeing him live at Reading, he absolutely towers over everyone on corners. He is going to be a menace like Gabriel is for them down the road.”
“He is massive, what a presence. So physically imposing, he is bold and will grow to be one of the leaders in the group, you can already tell,” claimed another.
Another stated: “Luka’s height for an 18-year-old is crazy, what are they feeding him.”
One fan added: “Luka is an absolute unit.”
A final chimed in: “Vuskovic is an absolute beast.”
Luka Vuskovic aerial ability and potential loan to Hamburg
Vuskovic does have something unique that other Tottenham defenders do not possess, and that is his aerial ability and goal-scoring instinct.
Despite being a centre-back, the Croatian managed to score seven goals while out on loan at Westerlo, and he was also quick to remind Spurs of his threat in the box during the pre-season fixture against Reading.
However, with Vuskovic still only 18, there is talk of him being sent out on loan this season, with Hamburg a likely destination – the same club where his brother currently plays.
