Luka Vuskovic’s Scorpion Kick Lifts HSV as Reports Hint at Possible Spurs Winter Recall

Tottenham view the on-loan defender as a long-term piece under contract through 2030.

Overview

  • The 18-year-old center-back scored a back-heel scorpion effort to make it 2-1 in HSV’s 3-2 Nordderby win over Werder Bremen.
  • Since matchday three he has played every minute for HSV, standing out with league-leading duel success rates reported around 66–70 percent.
  • HSV secured Vuskovic on loan from Tottenham in late August for about €1 million after previous spells at Radomiak and KVC Westerlo.
  • German reports, citing Bild, say a recall clause could return him to London in January if Spurs suffer multiple defensive injuries.
  • His move was shaped by HSV’s support for his banned brother Mario, highlighted by his No. 44 shirt, a tribute tattoo, and a ‘Free 44’ fan banner.
