Tottenham has gone completely crazy. They want £100 million (about 1.85 trillion won) for legend Son Heung-min (33, Tottenham).
"Tottenham News" reported, "As it stands, the possibility of Son leaving Tottenham is 50%. Son is contracted to participate in the match against Newcastle, which will be held in Seoul on Aug. 3. If Son does not play, Tottenham will have to pay a penalty fee. Coach Thomas Frank may not have the opportunity to work with Son," raising the possibility of a transfer for Son.
The revelation from former Tottenham scout Brian King is shocking. He said, "If a Saudi club wants to sign Son Heung-min, Tottenham will ask for £100 million. Tottenham believes it can receive that much money. The team acquiring Son can earn immense marketing revenue due to his enormous recognition in Korea. It's an unbelievable amount of expense."
Ultimately, Tottenham thinks it can sell the club's legend as long as it receives a large sum of money. Because the team acquiring Son can earn a lot of money through marketing, the transfer fee has been set higher. They continue to view Son as merely a money-making tool.
"Tottenham News" criticized, "If Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy receives an offer of £100 million, he won't be able to refuse. It is too valuable an amount to turn down. Tottenham can strengthen its squad even further with the money from selling Son."
