Tottenham face the prospect of losing a promising player this summer, as reports claim that he is now pushing to leave the club in the transfer window.
It comes as the hierarchy at Spurs are overseeing an important transfer window for the club, as they look to get the club back where they belong at the very top of the Premier League once more.
Incomings have been on the agenda so far, with two signings already completed, while a fee has been agreed with Brighton for Jan Paul van Hecke to make him the third arrival.
Talks are ongoing to sign Savinho for the forward ranks, while there is interest in Sandro Tonali to help improve the midfield area.
While Tottenham are keen to improve the squad, there are concerns that some important players could leave this summer, with uncertainty now surrounding the future of Luka Vuskovic.
Luka Vuskovic Pushing For Tottenham Exit
Tottenham have strengthened their defensive options this summer, but those signings could now force an exit for Vuskovic over the next few weeks.
According to journalist Alex Crook, the 19-year-old is now pushing to leave Spurs, as he searches for more guaranteed game time without being sent on loan again.
Vuskovic has been the subject of transfer interest from Brighton, who have had an offer in the region of £35 million rejected in discussions separate from the North London club’s talks to sign Van Hecke.
It’s unclear whether the Seagulls will return with an offer for the Croatian international, while he remains unhappy at the prospect of staying at Tottenham.
It comes as a potential blow for the club, who have been keen to maximise the potential of Vuskovic as one of the most promising defenders for the future.
His return from Hamburg brings plenty of questions over his future, which will need to be answered in the next few weeks.

Tottenham Advantage In Vuskovic Future
As Vuskovic faces doubts over his future, Tottenham appear to hold almost all of the cards to decide on what his next steps will be.
Spurs have a deal until 2030 for the defender, meaning they have plenty of time on their side and there is no need to force a deal this summer.

Tottenham are pushing to sign a new midfielder this summer, with a big-money deal potentially on the cards.
Add to that his need to develop, and Tottenham have a clear advantage in deciding the future of Vuskovic, whether that is on loan or with the club.
An exit could raise some valuable transfer funds, especially for a player who is not currently proven, but any fee must be sizeable and well beyond the £35 million currently on the table.
