Tottenham have rejected Brighton’s £30m offer, but the expectation is that they will return with an improved bid.Vuskovic is currently away with Croatia at the World Cup, and a strong campaign would only intensify interest in the defender. With several clubs continuing to monitor his progress, former Croatia captain Darijo Srna has opened up on the scale of the youngster’s talent and why he believes the Tottenham man has a huge future ahead of him. Speaking to Flashscore, Srna said: “I know Luka from when he was a kid because I played in the youth categories at Hajduk Split with his father, Danijel. He is a very good friend of mine. I know Luka and Mario, his two sons. They are amazing kids with amazing talent.“Luka has already shown that he will have an amazing future. He plays with so much confidence that I have the feeling he is a 25-year-old player. For sure, he is part of the future of European football and of the Croatian national team.”Luka Vuskovic set for daunting task against Harry Kane and co in World Cup openerVuskovic could yet have a part to play in what Srna expects to be a tightly contested encounter between Croatia and England. The clash would also offer Spurs an opportunity to see how the teenager performs against some of the best players in the world.The former Croatia full-back also highlighted the quality within both squads and suggested there is little to separate the two sides ahead of the match.Offering further insight into his expectations for the contest, Srna reiterated his admiration for England manager Thomas Tuchel and explained why he believes both nations have an equal chance of progressing. He said: “I know Tuchel very well as a coach. I respect him a lot. Of course, he is one of the best coaches in the world. He showed it at Chelsea.“I do not know how he will be with the national team in the World Cup, but he of course deserves great respect, and the entire England team as well.”He continued: “As Croatian people, we respect England, but I think it will be a very difficult match for both sides. Chances are 50-50 because Croatia is a very good and balanced team, with a lot of experience and young players as well. It will be a very interesting game for me.”READ MORE: Brentford want to sign £15m Tottenham midfielder overlooked by Roberto De ZerbiThe post Tottenham told they have ‘the future of European football’ in their ranks but they could be about to lose him appeared first on Spurs Web.
