There is another interesting prospect for Son Heung-min's future.
The British Mirror selected Tottenham as one of the candidates on the 12th (Korea Standard Time), predicting Rashford's destination on the release list from Manchester United.
Son Heung-min's name was mentioned while explaining the reason. The Mirror added: "If Rashford decides to stay in the Premier League, there are not many clear options, but Tottenham could be one of them`"Tottenham captain Son Heung-min's contract expires this summer. The question remains whether Tottenham should find a replacement for Son Heung-min", he explained.
"Tottenham is expected to activate the option of extending captain Son Heung-min's contract by one year, and Son appears happy in North London. However, Son Heung-min reportedly felt frustrated because he did not make progress on his long-term renewal. If Tottenham have decided to find a clear successor to the captain, Rashford seems fit for it."
Since Tottenham's future is uncertain, it is predicted that Manchester United may recruit Rashford, who was put on the release list, if Tottenham breaks up with Son Heung-min.
It has been confirmed that Manchester United will accept the transfer for around £40 million (about 72.6 billion won) when they put Rashford on the release list. Apart from Rashford's recent performance, Tottenham is at a price point that they can recruit if they only look at the price. In addition, Tottenham has a lot of worries because there are not many homegrown resources, and Rashford can help solve this problem as well.
Interestingly, if Manchester United also releases Rashford, they must supply a certain ace-level player for the position. There is a young prospect named Alejandro Garnacho, but Garnacho has been losing the trust of Manchester United fans due to his greedy performance recently. Manchester United's new coach Huveng Amorim also does not seem to consider Garnacho as a main player.
Son Heung-min may enter the empty spot created by Rashford's departure. Son Heung-min has already been connected to Manchester United several times. British Give Me Sports said on the 4th that "there is a lot of talk around Old Trafford that Tottenham superstar Son Heung-min, whose contract expires next summer, is a target that can be recruited."The exclusive report said Manchester United could try to recruit Son Heung-min."
At this time, it seemed that it would end up as a simple rumor report, but after Give Me Sports' report, local media in the UK also reported Son Heung-min's transfer to Manchester United. Give Me Sports, which first reported, said a few days later that "Manchester United are interested in Tottenham star Son Heung-min, and if a deal is reached, United and Amorim could sign the next Zlatan Ibrahimovic. "We can continue the tradition of recruiting world-class superstars who are old to reinforce the offense." he said once again that Manchester United is interested in Son Heung-min.
In addition, he has a young Manchester United squad that is talented and wants to stay that way. But at the highest level, experience is always very important. So we can recruit Son Heung-min. In terms of Son Heung-min, he is sluggish this season, but he still has four goals and four assists in 14 games under Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou," he added.
Another British media outlet, Team Talk, even heard that Amorim himself asked for Son to be recruited, saying, `Amorim sees Son as a 'workable goal' to bring him to Old Trafford next year. There is a lot of talk around Manchester United. I believe there is a way to lure Son Heung-min to Manchester United at the end of this season."
Team Talk also analyzed in detail how coach Amorim could use Son Heung-min. In Amorim's soccer, which operates in a 3-4-2-1 formation, Son is considered one of the 10 players who can play behind a striker, forming a potentially destructive partnership with Bruno Fernandes or Rashford," he predicted.
However, since Rashford is on the release list, you can imagine Son Heung-min and Bruno being placed in the second line together. Son Heung-min, who is happy just to imagine, is in the trend, but Son Heung-min's trend has since subsided, so it can only be seen as rumor news.
Son Heung-min's agent recently mentioned that the player and Tottenham are still talking, so Son Heung-min's most likely scenario for the next season is to stay at Tottenham.
On the 9th, the British Spurs Web reported "Son Heung-min's agent "It is not true that Son Heung-min will first ask the Spanish club to transfer or move to Turkiye." Talks with Tottenham are not over yet," he reported.
Spurs Web analyzed Son Heung-min's remarks as a possibility of renewing his contract. The media said "It is clear that Tottenham activated a clause that extends Son's contract by one year to buy time for negotiations (with Son Heung-min). As Tottenham captain Son Heung-min is committed to the current project, Tottenham and Son are expected to agree on a long-term renewal by the end of this season."
Spursweb said `Son Heung-min will be offered two more years after the one-year extension is invoked. I will be able to run for a total of three more years while maintaining my current wageHe even made an unconventional prediction that Tottenham would take out the card until renewing the two-year contract for Son Heung-min.
