There has been another claim that selling 'captain' Son Heung-min (33, Tottenham) and acquiring a replacement would benefit Tottenham.
Tottenham Hotspur News, which primarily covers Tottenham news, reported on the 1st (Korean time) that 'Son Heung-min's possibility of leaving Tottenham is continuously being raised amid disappointing performances this season.'
It added that 'Son Heung-min has recorded 7 goals and 9 assists in 26 Premier League matches this season, but his performance has shown significant fluctuation and a lack of consistency.' It noted that 'Although he should lead the team as the captain of Tottenham, he has been unable to turn around the difficulties faced by coach Ange Postecoglou in recent months. There are speculations that Son Heung-min may no longer be needed at Tottenham.'
The media has already reported that Tottenham is looking for a replacement for Son Heung-min.
Quoting 'TBR Football,' 'Tottenham Hotspur News' stated that 'Tottenham is considering acquiring Bayer Munich winger Leroy Sané (29) and the transfer is in a stage of becoming reality.'
Sané's contract with Munich ends at the end of this season.
According to a report from 'TBR Football,' Tottenham has joined the competition with Arsenal to acquire Sané on a free transfer.
'Tottenham Hotspur News' commented that 'Acquiring Sané could be a wise choice for Tottenham. The president of Tottenham, Daniel Levy, who has faced significant criticism due to poor performance this season, might be able to regain trust from fans if this move materializes.'
It further speculated that 'Sané can play on the left wing, while Dejan Kulusevski can handle the right. Therefore, the departure of Son Heung-min may not pose a significant problem for Tottenham.'
This season, Sané has played in 36 matches, scoring 11 goals and providing 4 assists. 'Tottenham Hotspur News' predicted that 'If Sané joins Tottenham, it could inject new vitality into the Postecoglou regime.'
On the other hand, the media added that 'Son Heung-min may find an opportunity to rebound in a new environment, away from Tottenham's high expectations, and the club could secure a certain level of transfer fee. From the fans' perspective, Son Heung-min's transfer might be considered a 'necessary evil' in order to escape the completely collapsed reality of Tottenham this season.'
