With the winds of change blowing in the Premier League, Tottenham’s Ivan Perisic seems poised to embark on a sentimental journey back to his Croatian roots.
Football Insider has reported that Ivan Perisic, who once dazzled the stands at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, has struck a verbal accord with Hajduk Split. This move comes after the Croatian maestro was sidelined due to a distressing ACL knee injury, making it uncertain if he will don the Spurs’ jersey again. With his contract due to conclude next summer, Perisic’s trajectory is seemingly charted towards his homeland.
Tottenham, understanding the veteran’s inclination, appear receptive to facilitating Perisic’s transition in January. Intriguingly, whispers suggest that Tottenham’s recent acquisition, Luka Vuskovic, played a part in broaching the subject of Perisic’s potential switch to Split.
Despite operating predominantly as a wing-back, Perisic’s debut season with Spurs showcased his versatility. With an admirable tally of 12 assists, he undeniably left his mark on the pitch.
For those unacquainted, Perisic’s dalliance with football commenced at Hajduk Split’s youth setup, making this move emblematic of a full circle. The seasoned midfielder then ventured to France in 2006, signing with FC Sochaux. His subsequent journey saw him grace illustrious clubs like Borussia Dortmund, Inter Milan, and Bayern Munich, testifying to his prowess and adaptability.
While Tottenham seem set to bid adieu to this dynamic player, Perisic’s impending return to Croatia offers a nostalgic denouement to his illustrious European odyssey.
