Newcastle's 20 years old midfielder Haris Vu?ki? has agreed to a deal with Bolton. Vu?ki? felt the chance of more playing time to be a considerable factor in his decision. Newcastle have confirmed the deal, the loan will stand until the end of the season.
Haris Vu?ki?, born 21 August 1992 in Ljubljana, is a Slovenian footballer who plays as a midfielder. On 16 January 2009, it was confirmed that Vu?ki? would sign for Premier League team Newcastle United for a substantial fee and signed a three and a half year deal at St. James' Park. He is regarded as one of Europe's brightest talents and reports suggest he underwent a trial at AC Milan.
Vu?ki? made his first appearance for Newcastle's reserve team on 16 February 2009 when he came off the bench to score the winning goal against Blackburn reserves, curling a left-footed shot into the bottom corner from 20 yards. He scored his first goal for the U18 team in his league debut in a 4–2 away win at Derby.
He has scored three goals altogether for the reserves, two league goals for the U18s and five more in 2009–10 pre-season friendlies. Vu?ki? made his Newcastle United debut on 26 August 2009 as a late substitute in a League Cup tie with Huddersfield Town, where he played on the left wing. Five days later Vu?ki? came off the bench to replace striker Nile Ranger in a 1–0 victory over Leicester City. This was to be his first league appearance for the club.
Vu?ki? scored his first senior goal for Newcastle against Carlisle United in a friendly on 17 July 2010 with a curled effort into the bottom left hand corner. In the 2010–2011 campaign, Newcastle manager Chris Hughton gave many of the youngsters a chance in the Football League Cup, Vu?ki? played in the second round tie against Accrington Stanley in central midfield alongside fellow youngster Ryan Donaldson. After Newcastle progressed with a 3–2 victory, he played in the third round away game to Chelsea, where Newcastle overcame expectations to win 4–3 in a thrilling encounter. He continued his impressive display against Arsenal in the League Cup fourth round getting the Man of the Match award despite Newcastle United losing 4–0. In January 2011 Vu?ki? signed a new five and a half year contract with Newcastle.
On 26 July 2011, Vu?ki? went on to score again for Newcastle, scoring the final goal in a 3–0 win over MLS side Columbus Crew. In Newcastle United's next pre-season friendly against Leeds United at Elland Road, Vu?ki? went on to score Newcastle's second goal and provided an impressive display since coming on despite Newcastle losing the game 3–2. He made his Premier League debut on 28 August 2011 against Fulham as a 78th minute substitute, but was himself substituted seven minutes later with a suspected dislocated finger. He made his comeback for the team as a substitute four months later in a 0–0 draw with Swansea City. He went on to make his first Premiership start for Newcastle against West Bromwich Albion on 21 December and won plaudits for his performance, which included hitting the woodwork from 30 yards and forcing a fine save from the opposition goalkeeper.
On 30 August, Vu?ki? made his continental début for Newcastle United, coming on as a substitute for an injured Ryan Taylor against Greek side Atromitos, scoring the winning goal in the process, sending Newcastle through to the Europa League group stages.
He has represented Slovenia international youth selections in every category to date. On 1 October 2010, he was summoned into a 23-man squad of the Slovenia national football team for the UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying matches against Faroe Islands and Estonia, however, he did not make his debut at the time. His international debut did come in a Friendly match against Scotland on 29 February 2012.
"It was the right moment for him to leave, we don't know if we'll keep him so a loan move will give us time to think." declared Oliveh Kahn, who doesn't look to have central attacking midfielders in his future plans.
