[인터풋볼] Reporter Shin Dong-hoon = The prospect of Son Heung-min (28, Tottenham) going to Bayern Munich is very low.
‘Talk Sports’ in the UK said on the 3rd (Korean time), “It is unlikely that Son Heung-min will go to Munich. Munich paid a heavy transfer fee to Leroy Sane, who signed up ahead of the season. Even with reinforcement, it will focus on other parts of the attack, not the attack. Son Heung-min was good at Hamburg and Leverkusen, but his goal was to play in the English Premier League (EPL).”
The transfer rumor between Son Heung-min and Munich came out for the first time on March 31 (Korean time) through the British Football Insider report. The media said, “Munich has a plan to recruit Son Heung-min. Some are willing to wait until next year, when the contract with Tottenham is one year left. Son Heung-min is showing better performance than the current wingers Serju Gnavri, Kingsley Komang and Leroy Sane.”
Along with Munich, Son Heung-min has been connected with some of the best European leaders such as Real Madrid and Juventus. The biggest reason was that his performance was great. Son Heung-min, who entered Tottenham in 2015, had difficulty adapting in the beginning, but gradually grew and took the lead. After that, he showed off his overwhelming skills and emerged as the best winger in the EPL. Starting with the 2016-17 season, he scored double digits each season and joined the 10-10 club last season.
He is very active this season. Son Heung-min is scoring 13 goals and 9 assists in 28 EPL matches. Jose Mourinho plays a key role in counterattack football. It is very deterministic, not to mention its fast speed and sharp breakthrough. In addition, it was equipped with the ability to deploy attacks, completely solidifying its position as a world class. The marketing value is also high. It is the condition and skill that big clubs will be interested in enough.
There have been several transfer theories, but questions are being raised about the reality. Son Heung-min’s potential market value is estimated at 85 million euros (approximately 13 billion won) based on the football statistics media’Transmark’. Even if it is a big club, it is difficult to pay in the situation of Corona 19. In addition, Son Heung-min is in a strong position to renew his contract with Tottenham. Tottenham intends not to miss Son Heung-min and plans to significantly raise the weekly wage.
