Son Heung-Min of Tottenham Hotspur has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
According to recent sources, Real Madrid is interested in signing the 30-year-old South Korean, but they will have to pay a premium to do so.
Son has been an important player for the London club since his arrival, and they are unwilling to let him go cheaply. According to Fichajes, the attacker is estimated to cost roughly €70 million.
The dynamic forward is under contract with Spurs until the summer of 2025, therefore the club is under no obligation to sell him.
It will be interesting to see whether Son is tempted to move on if an offer is presented in the summer.
Son is in his 30s now and he will want to win some trophies now. Real Madrid can certainly give him the platform to do so. Furthermore, he would get to play with world-class players at the Spanish club.
The La Liga outfit believes that he would be an ideal fit for them, but it remains to be seen how they accommodate him should the move happen.
Real Madrid already has Karim Benzema, Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo Goes at their disposal. That said, the Spanish club will need to add more depth to their attack and Son seems like a quality option.
Despite not being at his best this season, the Spurs ace remains a top-class player who would improve most teams. His versatility will be an added bonus for Ancelotti.
With Benzema now 34, the Frenchman needs to be used diligently so that he can stay fresh for important games. Bringing in Son would give Los Blanco’s the option to rotate and keep their attack fit and ready.
It remains to be seen whether Los Blanco’s are prepared to pay the €70m asking price for the 30-year-old at the end of this season.
