[서울=뉴스핌] Reporter Kim Yong-seok = Son Heung-min’s trip to Real Madrid is on the rise.
On the 2nd (Korean time), Spanish and British sports media said, “Spanish Primera Liga’s prestigious club Real Madrid is putting Son Heung-min (28) active in the Premier League Tottenham on the recruiting list.”

Son Heung-min scored 22 goals and 10 assists in the Premier League (EPL), European Football Federation (UEFA) Champions League, and Europa League last season. He has scored 11 goals this season and is tied for second in the EPL.
In addition, it is attracting great attention as a world-class star by being named as the’Best Asian Player’ selected by the International Federation of National Federation of Soccer and Area History Statistics (IFFHS) every year. Recently, he has become the protagonist of the Puskas Award given to the’most beautiful goal’.
The deadline for renewing the contract between Son Heung-min and Tottenham is until next June. A few months ago, it was said that foreign media had set a weekly wage of 300 million won, the highest level in Tottenham, and signed again with Son Heung-min. However, no official announcement of the renewal of the contract came out and the idea of signing Real Madrid is gaining momentum.
In fact, Tottenham Levy had previously sold Gareth Bale for a new transfer fee of £85.3 million (about 126.9 billion won). Ironically, the people who brought the extra money made at this time are 6 players including Son Heung-min and Ericsen.
Gareth Bale was sluggish at Real Madrid and didn’t even get a chance to play. Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane was out of sight and was finally on loan to Tottenham this season.
For this reason, foreign media dominate the prediction that Levy Tottenham will again become the’winner’. This means that he will sell Son Heung-min, who is in the best position, and will play a part in the club’s finances.
The European Transfermark set the value of Son Heung-min at £81 million (about 1205 billion won). As a left winger, it is the fourth highest amount in the world. However, it is not the amount that Real Madrid owes. This is because Edan Hazar, who played for Chelsea, moved to £150 million (about 22.3 billion won).
Because of this situation, there are many observations in Europe that “the’negotiator’ Levy will surrender Son Heung-min for an enormous amount of over £100 million (about 1487 billion won).”
Of course, Son Heung-min’s wallet also gets thicker. The weekly wage negotiated with Tottenham is about 300 million won per week, but it is expected to receive more than double the ransom price if the team moves to Real Madrid.
In addition, the reaction of Spanish media that Zidane Real Madrid coach is “watching Son Heung-min’s performance” is added. It is known that Zidane is continuously collecting information about Son Heung-min.
Even if the decision to go to Real Madrid is decided, Son Heung-min is unlikely to transfer immediately. European media are predicting that a full-fledged tug of war between Tottenham and Real Madrid will begin after the 2019-2020 season is over.
