Tottenham will need to battle to keep hold of Luka Vuskovic this summer, as The Standard reports that a decision has been made on his future soon.

Recent reports claim that the defender has requested to leave Spurs, following an impressive campaign out on loan at Hamburg in the Bundesliga.

The 19-year-old has skyrocketed in stature in recent years, but is yet to make his senior debut at Tottenham, and there are now doubts over whether that may come about at all.

With the recent signings in the backline, there is now huge competition for Vuskovic, who is set to consider his future with a decision in the coming days.

Luka Vuskovic Exit Decision

With uncertainty over the future of Vuskovic, The Standard reports that the defender’s future will be resolved after Croatia’s World Cup tournament comes to an end.

It’s claimed that the centre-back is now focused on his nation’s chances in the competition, and will then look to resolve his future with Tottenham after an exit is confirmed.

Croatia take on Portugal in the round of 32, with Vuskovic featuring in one of the three games they’ve played so far, with hopes that he can still contribute in the coming clash.

Should the previous finalists lose in the next match, then Tottenham could reach a decision with the 19-year-old in the next few days.

Vuskovic has been the subject of interest from Brighton, who have made two bids for the star so far, without any luck in being able to persuade Spurs to part ways with the youngster.

Reports stated that Vuskovic has asked to leave Tottenham, but so far there has been no movement in terms of an exit, with his return to the club likely to spark discussions over his future.

It remains to be seen whether Spurs can talk the defender round to staying, or whether he will stick with his decision to leave the club in the coming weeks.

Tottenham Must Convince Vuskovic To Stay

Vuskovic is clearly a talented player, having broken through in a position that is typically difficult to play in at such a young age.

It’s reasonable that, having made such an explosive start to his senior career, the defender is looking to keep that momentum up with another transfer.

Tottenham may find it difficult to provide the minutes he needs, given the competition around him and the requirement to win games from the start.

That said, at 19, Spurs need to provide a vision of a pathway that he can go on to keep him. The club have bought into these youngsters with the idea of them developing into superstars.

To cash in on Vuskovic at this stage would be to pull out of that plan without seeing it through to completion. Given his long contract, there is a chance to keep hold of him for the long-term future.

It remains to be seen whether the Lilywhites can do that, with a big few days ahead.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic Names World’s 5 Best Footballers Right Now

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has named the world’s five best footballers right now following France’s 3-0 victory over Sweden in the Round of 32 at the 2026 World Cup.

Kylian Mbappe scored another brace and moves level with Argentina’s Lionel Messi on six goals in the race for the Golden Boot. The Real Madrid superstar now has 18 World Cup goals to his name. Only Messi (19) has more World Cup goals in the tournament’s history.

Bradley Barcola scored France’s other goal. Meanwhile, Michael Olise bagged two assists, and Ousmane Dembele set up Mbappe’s opener.

France are unquestionably the World Cup’s standout team so far and will be the red-hot favourites heading into Saturday’s last 16 tie against Paraguay at the Philadelphia Stadium.

Win that and they’ll then face either Canada or Morocco in the quarter-finals before a potential semi-final against Portugal, Spain, United States or Belgium depending on how results unfold in the previous two rounds.

Opta’s Supercomputer claims Lionel Messi’s Argentina have a stronger chance than England

Ibrahimovic, the legendary retired Swedish striker who has impressed in his role as a pundit for FOX Sports at this summer’s World Cup, believes three members of the France squad are among the five best players in world football as things stand.

The former Barcelona and Manchester United star said after being wowed by Les Bleus:

“Take the five best players in the world, three of them are in [France’s] attack: Dembele, Olise and Mbappe.”

He explained that Messi doesn’t make his top five because the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner is in a league of his own, and instead opted for two younger superstars.

Zlatan added: “[Lamine] Yamal and [Erling] Haaland, I would say, because Messi is in his own class… but three of the top five are in [France’s] attack. It’s not easy to make that combination. We have an example when PSG had Mbappe, Messi and Neymar. It was not working 100 per cent.

“But with France, they don’t have this ego, who will be the one. They also do their jobs off the ball, which is more important than on the ball because we know what they can do on the ball. They can decide the game by themselves – all of them. So, it’s scary.”

There was no room in Zlatan’s top five for Bayern Munich and England star Harry Kane, who scored a remarkable 61 goals in 51 games during the 2025-26 season. Arsenal’s Declan Rice, Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr and Paris Saint-Germain’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia also missed the cut, despite being among the leading contenders for the 2026 Ballon d’Or award.

Rangers look set to complete a hijack after agreeing a deal to beat Southampton to a new signing, according to reports.

The Glasgow club are preparing to enter a new era after appointing former Hearts manager Derek McInnes as their new boss. He replaces Danny Rohl, who made the move to RB Salzburg.

It was a dismal end to the 25-26 season for Rangers, comfortably missing out on the Scottish Premiership title to rivals Celtic.

As a result, they will be looking to bring in reinforcements during the summer transfer window, likely aiming to strengthen in various areas of the pitch.

It could be a busy few weeks and months for Rangers as they look to back new manager McInnes in the transfer market.

Tottenham have a decision to make.

Rangers Beat Southampton to Signing

According to both Sky Sports reporter Keith Downie and GIVEMESPORT correspondent Ben Jacobs, Rangers have agreed a deal to sign former Sunderland midfielder Dan Neil.

Jacobs confirms that Neil is expected to join Rangers as a free agent with an agreement in place and close to being formalised.

Downie confirms that Neil was in talks with Southampton and looked to have opted to join the Championship club, but things have changed significantly over the last 48 hours as Rangers swooped in.

Neil has been having a medical over the last 24 hours at Ibrox, and a deal is expected to be confirmed soon.

Rangers completed the signing of Ivor Pandur from Hull earlier this week in a deal worth £6m, so they are clearly making moves in the transfer market.

Arsenal are showing interest in signing another French star alongside Bradley Barcola of PSG, according to BBC reporter Sami Mokbel.

The Gunners haven’t rushed into any big signings so far in the summer transfer window, which is no surprise after they lifted the Premier League title last season.

The likes of Manchester United, Tottenham and Liverpool are all working on multiple deals at a time, but Arsenal can afford to sit back and wait.

The Gunners won’t want to rest on what they built last year, especially considering they lost in the Champions League final against PSG.

There’s no doubt Mikel Arteta will be looking to improve his squad in the summer transfer window, but there’s no need for them to panic after their 25-26 campaign success.

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Morgan Rogers, but could pivot to another star instead if they can’t land the Aston Villa man.

Arsenal Eyeing French Star

According to BBC reporter Mokbel, Arsenal have a strong interest in signing goalkeeper Illan Meslier, who has now left Leeds United following the expiration of his contract.

Arsenal are potentially in the market for a second-choice goalkeeper with Kepa Arrizabalaga’s future uncertain.

The former Chelsea goalkeeper might be considering heading through the exit door in the coming months in order to go and play more regular first-team football.

Meslier isn’t the only French player that Arsenal are currently looking at, with reports suggesting that they also want Paris Saint-Germain winger Barcola.
