Japanese media reported that a number of big clubs in Europe are scrambling to recruit Japanese soccer star Takefusa Kubo (Real Sociedad).

On the 19th, the Japanese media 'Scar Digest' intensified the battle for the old guard. European big clubs such as Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid and Chelsea are paying attention. The scramble looks even fiercer,' he reported.

Soccer Digest says 'Gubo and Martin Subimendi are targeted by several strong teams in the Premier League. If the two players go out, Real Sociedad's power is greatly weakened, but the club's prospects could be complicated by financial temptation.



British media 'Football London' also reported that Tottenham is interested in Gubo.

Football London on the 19th 'Gubo, which overpowered the opponent with fast speed and dribbling ability, was connected to Tottenham and other clubs. 'The player who will solve Tottenham's problems at the moment,' Gubo reported.



Football London did not have enough wingers to push the opposing full-back. Currently, coach Enze Postecoglou's options are Son Heung-min, Werner, Moore and Brennan Johnson, and Kulusevski is also available. They clearly revealed their limitations in the specific domain. However, Japan's highly regarded national team Kubo praised the issue, saying, 'We can solve all these problems.

Football London has already reached half the level of last year's record this season. Most importantly, Gubo has characteristics that Postecoglou would like. Gubo is fast and dribbling is excellent. If Tottenham can make this deal, it will be a great help.



Tottenham urgently need to reinforce their side attack resources. Ahead of the 2024-2025 season, the team was steadily formed, but the injury was unfavorable. Tottenham recruited three teenage wingers in the summer: Wilson O'Dober, Mikey Moore and Yang Min-hyuk. O'Dober injured his hamstring and went to the operating table. Moore, who is new to the first team, is in a bad condition. Yang Min-hyuk joins in January. Timo Werner, who was in the past, is sluggish, and Son Heung-min is worried that the thigh injury he suffered at the beginning of the season will recur. Therefore, he has requested Yang Min-hyuk, who was originally supposed to come in January, to join early.

Gubo is a resource that Tottenham would covet. Gubo can play not only left and right wing forwards but also offensive midfielders. He has excellent ball guard ability, scoring ability and creative play. Several combinations are possible with Dejan Kulusevski, who can see both wings and midfielders like Gubo. Last season, he scored seven goals and four assists in 30 games in the Primera Liga. He has scored three goals in 13 games this season. In particular, most Tottenham wingers use speed as their main weapon for straight movements, but Gubo has a good detailed build-up in a narrow space. Since he is a player who has already been verified in the Primera Liga, Yang Min-hyuk is bound to be at a disadvantage in the competition.

It's unclear if the deal will really be lost. According to Transfermarkt, a transfer site, Kubo's ransom is 50 million euros (about 74 billion won). It's quite expensive. Big transfers don't come easily in January. The price Tottenham wants is around 30 million euros (about 44 billion won), so there is a big difference in perspective.

Gubo has already been strongly linked to Liverpool in the transfer market last summer. Japanese media Sponizia Nex blew the wind that Liverpool loaded 65 million euros (about 98 billion won) to recruit Kubo, but nothing happened.
