Scout report

Rising starCentral defender

L. Vušković is a 19-year-old central defender at Hamburger SV, rated 86.9 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 9th of 325 on scout potential in the Bundesliga and 13th of 995 U-21 players tracked. A young player, he has been an ever-present this season (90.4% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 3.25 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Vušković.

Judged on this season alone, Vušković graded 33 — a solid campaign that ranks top 39% of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga, on 5 clean sheets and 3.245 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 19 → 33). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 87, top 2% of the 52 centre-backs in the Bundesliga. At 19 Vušković is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 41.5 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Vušković missed 4 games through injury (knee, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 28 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Clean sheets

3.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (13th of 18) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 6 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.

Strengths

  • Availability. On the pitch for 90.4% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
  • Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.22 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
  • Ceiling. High potential at just 19 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.

Outlook

With a Rating of 86.9, Vušković carries the 1st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Bundesliga (top 2%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Hamburger SV finished 13th of 18) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.25 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 19 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (99/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 19, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
