Superagent holding talks with Barcelona regarding promising Tottenham defender
As already reported, Pini Zahavi is in Catalonia for a high-stakes week of negotiations with FC Barcelona.
The superagent is currently in the Catalan capital to finalise two major files for the Blaugrana: the contract renewal of manager Hansi Flick and the resolution of Robert Lewandowski’s future following interest from Italian clubs.
Now, though, according to journalist Florian Plettenberg, the future of Tottenham Hotspur’s teenage sensation Luka Vuskovic has been added to an agenda already packed with Barcelona’s top priorities.
Indeed, Zahavi is also using the visit to hold exploratory talks with the Barcelona board regarding the Tottenham prospect.
The 19-year-old Croatian defender, currently on loan at Hamburger SV, has seen his stock rise meteorically, making him a prime target for clubs seeking elite defensive prospects.

Barcelona are actively pursuing a new centre-back heading into the summer window to bolster a backline that has faced injury challenges this season. Alessandro Bastoni of Inter Milan remains their priority, but they are looking at alternatives.
Vuskovic’s profile – combining imposing physical stature with technical ball-playing ability – is something that aligns perfectly with the club’s long-term sporting project.
Despite the interest from Spain, Tottenham remain desperate to retain the defender. The North London club are preparing a massive salary increase to convince him to stay and integrate into their first-team setup next season.
While a second loan to Hamburg is considered unlikely, the market remains open, with several other top European clubs monitoring the situation.
For Barcelona, the challenge lies in navigating their financial constraints while competing with a Premier League side ready to break their wage structure for a teenager.
With Zahavi already at the table discussing Flick and Lewandowski, the conversations regarding Vuskovic could have a significant impact on the club’s summer planning.
