After emerging as one of the Bundesliga's biggest revelations last season, former Hamburger SV loanee and current Tottenham player Luka Vušković is attracting serious interest from another Premier League club.
Brighton & Hove Albion have reportedly upped their first bid worth around €35 million for the highly-rated Croatian defender, whose performances in Hamburg have turned him into one of Europe's most sought-after young centre-backs.
The 19-year-old Croatian international is reportedly impressed by Brighton head coach Fabian Hürzeler and the club's track record of developing young talent. Reports in Germany and England suggest the player has already reached a verbal agreement with Brighton, but Tottenham remain reluctant to sanction a transfer.
The negotiations between Brighton and Tottenham are ongoing - it remains to be seen if the improved offer will be enough to get Vušković in.
