Liverpool have discussed a potential summer move for Tottenham Hotspur defender Luka Vuskovic, who is spending the season on loan at Hamburg, according to German publication Bild.<\/p>\n

The Anfield side<\/a> are believed to be among several European clubs monitoring the highly promising Croatian centre-back amid his impressive debut season in the Bundesliga.<\/p>\n

Vuskovic is unlikely to play for Spurs next season amid their looming threat of Premier League relegation, as he reportedly wants to test himself in a continental competition.<\/p>\n

Tottenham signed Vuskovic back in 2023, but the ‘outstanding’<\/a> Croatian only officially joined Spurs last summer, penning a deal until June 2030.<\/p>\n

According to Bild<\/a>, several Champions League clubs, including Barcelona and Real Madrid, are now seriously considering Vuskovic following his impressive first season at Hamburg.<\/p>\n

The 19-year-old defender is considered a \u2018mega-talent\u2019 in European football and appears to be a concrete target for Barcelona, with former midfielder Ivan Rakitic recommending the club sign him.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid reportedly view Vuskovic as a potential alternative to Liverpool\u2019s own Ibrahima Konate, who remains of interest to Los Blancos ahead of his contract expiry.<\/p>\n

If Konate ends up leaving Anfield this summer, the Reds are likely to target a replacement and have already internally discussed a potential move for Vuskovic.<\/p>\n
