Spain's El Nacional is watching Son Heung-min and Mohamed Salah, who will become free agents in Barcelona on the 3rd (Korea time)," he reported. Among these two players, Son Heung-min is the most likely to go to Barcelona. In the case of Salah, he has performed tremendously this season, and Liverpool is eager to renew his contract with him. Salado is ranked No. 1 in the English Premier League (EPL) and there is no reason to leave Liverpool, which is currently considered the best team in the world.
Son Heung-min is in a different situation. Despite being Tottenham's captain, they belong to a team that cannot guarantee a Champions League appearance and a league-winning competition. It is pointed out that he needs to leave to win his first career championship as a soccer player.

In early December last year, there were a series of reports on Son Heung-min's transfer to Barcelona.
Team Talk in England is said to have suggested Son Heung-min join Barcelona for Tottenham's 'Superstar'"Considering the contract situation, it seems that he will be able to transfer for free at the end of the season."
"Barcelona will release Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres to recruit Son Heung-min. Barcelona's director Deku believes positively in recruiting Son Heung-min and is seeking to recruit him. " Barcelona is setting its goal of recruiting in the summer of 2025, not the January transfer market, according to the media.
If a one-year contract with Tottenham is not renewed, Son Heung-min can be brought to the team as a free agent (FA) status. He said he can handle Son's weekly salary by sending out Fati and Torres.

There were also rebuttal reports that Barcelona did not want Son Heung-min.
British Tribuna "Barcelona exclude Son Heung-min from recruitment due to his age, according to Barcelona internal sources"Barcelona is focused on discovering young resources and preparing for the future of the team in accordance with its long-term strategy", dismissing the transfer rumor.
Most media outlets claiming Son Heung-min's transfer to Barcelona say that the possibility is slim as the media has low public confidence.
In addition, Barcelona is unlikely to be able to handle Son Heung-min's weekly salary. Son Heung-min's current weekly salary is around 340 million won, receiving the highest treatment in the team. It is unclear whether Barcelona will pay Son Heung-min, who is a veteran soccer player, this much per week.
