Son Heung-min was on the list of four players Barcelona wanted. Sports Bible "The list includes Bayer Leverkusen's Jonathan Ta, Bayern Munich duo Joshua Kimmich and Leroy Sane. Barcelona are also aiming to recruit Tottenham's Son Heung-min from the EPL," he reported.
It is El Nacional, a Spanish media outlet that has connected Son Heung-min and Barcelona since last year, that sparked rumors of a transfer to Barcelona. El Nacional, which first reported in October last year that Barcelona was aiming for Son Heung-min, even reported in December that Son Heung-min even put a counter-proposal in Barcelona.
According to the media at the time "According to the latest information, Son Heung-min, Tottenham's historical figure and one of the EPL's most iconic players, sent a counter-offer to Barcelona. Son Heung-min's contract expires at the end of this season, so there is an open possibility of signing him without transfer costs" he said. However, it was found that this was not true.

Barcelona is still very financially difficult due to the serious club management that has been a problem since the mid-2010s and the COVID-19 that has made it fester. The problem is so serious that it immediately goes against financial regulations that it is on the verge of releasing key player Dani Olmo as a free agent. Olmo cannot register as a player.
Despite still struggling financially, trains in Barcelona are unstoppable. The best club in the world always has no choice but to maintain the WIN NOW stance. In the midst of the financial crisis triggered by COVID-19, Barcelona frequently targeted free agents and made a good deal of recruitment. The context for Son Heung-min also seems to be the same.
El Nacional said in the past that `in Camp Nou, Barcelona can guarantee Son Heung-min that he will fight for the trophy. This will be the reason why Son Heung-min wants to start a new adventure. Aside from his incredible experience at the global level, Son can play in any position in the attacking position, making him a very important player in Flick's plansHe said, "I thought very highly of the effect of recruiting Son Heung-min.
Of course, this is the story when Tottenham did not trigger a one-year extension. Tottenham has yet to decide what to do with Son Heung-min. Rumors have been heard since last summer that the one-year extension will be invoked, but Tottenham has not moved. It is presumed that Son Heung-min has not made a clear decision about his future yet.
Indeed, if Son Heung-min can come to the market on a free contract, interest is expected to heat up. This is because it is a great opportunity to take Asia's top superstar without transfer fees.
