British media: Tottenham central defender Vuskovic performed well on loan, and Hamburg benefited from him

On October 7, London Football Network published an article talking about the performance of Tottenham's 18-year-old central defender Vushkovic, who was loaned to Hamburg.

Hamburg fans said that since Vushkovic joined on loan, the team's performance has improved, which is no coincidence.

Although Vushkovic is only 18 years old, the Croatian was everywhere in Sunday's 4-0 home win over Mainz. Hamburg are unbeaten with two wins and a draw since Vushkovic's difficult debut against Bayern, and have kept clean sheets in their last two games and the Tottenham youngster has been named Bundesliga Young Player of the Month for September.

In last week's 0-0 draw with Union Berlin, Vushkovic became the first person to win 18 aerial duels in a single game in the five major European leagues in more than five seasons. He won 18 of 20 aerial duels. Against Mainz, Vushkovic touched the ball 62 times in 90 minutes and contributed several key tackles.

German media Bild reported last week that Vushkovic is still completing his secondary school qualifications through online learning, and is also learning German and Italian to supplement his English and Croatian language skills.

Former Tottenham coach Martin Jol said in an interview with London Football Network last month: "Romero is a good, reliable defender, but I tell you one thing, the kid they sent to Hamburg now - Luka Vuskovic - will be better than him in the future."
