Now even some expectations have disappeared.

No matter how much fans and media express and point out their concerns, Tottenham Hotspur's attitude will not change. Son Heung-min (32), the team's top star and 'captain', revealed himself that he had no regrets. Son Heung-min is still valued as the league's top striker right now, but he is reportedly looking for a replacement after judging that he has entered the `Dusk of the Career' period.

There is a high possibility that he will no longer look back after a one-year extension of his contract with Son Heung-min.

The cost of recruiting a new player is enormous, and there is no guarantee that the player brought in will play as well as expected, but it seems that they have decided to recruit a substitute rather than extend their contract with Son Heung-min.



British media Daily Star reported on the 22nd (Korea time) 'Tottenham mentioned how much it would cost to recruit a player to replace Son Heung-min, the best player in the team' Tottenham expects Son Heung-min to say goodbye after the contract period, even though he returned to the team before West Ham after overcoming his injury and performed his best. Son Heung-min is still showing affection and loyalty to the team, but not Tottenham. I think my relationship with Son Heung-min is over.

Therefore, he is looking for a player to fill the position after Son Heung-min leaves. It is also part of this purpose that a large number of young wingers such as Mikey Moore, Wilson O'Dowbert, and Yang Min-hyuk were recruited to the transfer market last summer. However, it is known that he is still seeking to recruit additional wingers.

Citing a report by Catch Offside, the media said it will cost Tottenham at least 50 million pounds (about 89.5 billion won) to recruit winger Jamie Baino-Gittens from Borussia Dortmund. 'It takes a huge amount of money just to start the recruitment discussion because Dortmund are not trying to lose players for now,' he reported.

This means that Son Heung-min is looking for the most obvious alternative under the assumption that he will leave the team. Baino-Gittens is also one of Tottenham's favorite 'Young Special Prospects' Now at the age of 20, he has already scored four goals and three assists this season. Tottenham are constantly signing autographs. 'Son Heung-min's era is over soon' is a signature. Son Heung-min gave affection, but Tottenham thought of it only as a business relationship.
