The contract of the Tottenham player from South Korea will end this season. Reporting from Fabrizio Romano, he said that there had been no discussions about his future with Tottenham.
Son himself is one of the players who can be relied on by Tottenham, since he joined the club in the 2015/2016 season he has recorded good statistics, although he has not been able to present a prestigious title for Tottenham. However, this is not his fault, because the overall game can bring a club to win a prestigious title.
Tottenham should keep this player, because they currently have no replacement, unless they have the option to replace his position.

Spurs should keep the player and if Spurs choose to sell him, I believe Spurs strength will be slightly weakened in the attacking line. Son is one of the players who can always find opportunities when the team starts to have difficulty getting opportunities to score. Although he has not been very good lately, he can still make contributions that can help other players to score. I hope Spurs will not let him go unless they have a replacement player who has the same talent.

Son has spent so many seasons in Tottenham, he has been with the club since 28 August 2015 and has really performed so well for the club, I remember back then when Son and Harry Kane were very active for Tottenham as the both players did perfect jobs for the club by scoring most goals for the club. The reason why I am of the opinion that Tottenham should sell Son is so that he can also try another club if he can win a trophy because regardless of the efforts he put in Tottenham he didn't win any major trophies as he only won the International Champions cup in 2018/2019. If Son leaves Tottenham it will really affect the club's performance considering how helpful and impactful he has been to the team for this long time but he can't end his football career at Tottenham so he should be allowed to also test his ability in other clubs.

He will be very difficult for Tottenham to sell Son because is a very great player for the club, I don't see any player that is better than him currently in the club, is a key player and they like him more than Harry Kane, and I am sure if Son leave Tottenham, he will be very hard for the club to achieve their goal because is only the player that is pushing the club now and winning matches in the team, and they even have a match against Manchester United this weekend. They're following the same pattern I'm observing.

I believe the game will most likely end in a draw, but we'll see how it plays out. How Although Harry Kane left Tottenham for Bayern Munich to win trophies, he has yet to win a trophy in the league. This season, I believe he can win a trophy as they are in good form. If Son sees that he cannot win a trophy, he may reconsider his decision and move to another club that can help him achieve his goals. I am not sure why Tottenham has not won titles in recent years.

Erik ten Hag says that they need to score more goals than this. He is right. This is really the point Manchester United are lacking very much. What are they doing for this? I don't know at all... 

Do you think they need another signing for the attacking line?    Like a striker or winger. I don't think they need a winger at all firstly. They really have good talents in their hands. But for striker, I really can't be sure. Zirkzee just can't score. Hojlund has newly recovered from his injury so we don't know what he will do for now.

I'm just curious, maybe they can also join the race for Osimhen at the end of the season? I mean if their current strikers don't satisfy the expectations...

Looking back a little, Manchester United should have recruited Harry Kane, who has been tested and experienced in the Premier League, not a young star of Rasmus Hojlund caliber.
Looking at the team needs, it is very clear that Manchester United need a striker who is sharper than they already have, but recruiting Osimhen seems difficult to realize, because it has the potential to disrupt the club financial balance. Actually, Hojlund and Zirkzee have great potential, but they need more time to develop. A more crucial area that Ten Hag needs to fix is ​​the midfield, this will function to support the front line and maintain the balance of the game.

The current situation, Ten Hag is under great pressure, pressure that continues to increase every week, due to only being able to win three of eight matches in various competitions. The players cannot be blamed entirely for the team current unstable performance, they play according to Ten Hag instructions. Maybe Manchester United current shortcomings are no longer about the players, but it comes from their manager.

I hope Spurs will not let him go unless they have a replacement player who has the same talent.

I think they should extend his contract at the end of the year. I wouldn't be wrong if I said that Son is the first name that comes to mind when thinking of Far Eastern and Asian players. We can say that he is the most valuable Asian in the Premier League, especially after playing for many years and being a symbolic player for Tottenham, it wouldn't be right to think otherwise. They should definitely keep Son at the end of the year. They should have a debt of loyalty to the player.

[Pokapoka124]

You can say that both teams made the biggest mistake of their lives, first by letting go of such a good player while he was in the ranks of their team and Chelsea for not completing his signing, I think they have been big losers for not having this great player, for now the great Galatasaray can enjoy the benefits of this player, for me one of the best in Nigeria, and I think things are obvious from miles away, now many will speculate that when the transfer windows open they will be very well taken advantage of by Chelsea, I am sure of that.

Man Utd left to look silly as reason for snubbing Victor Osimhen emerges

Manchester United reportedly agreed two reasons to opt against launching a swoop for Victor Osimhen in Erik ten Hag's first summer transfer window. But the profile of the two strikers brought to Old Trafford under the Dutchman's watch makes one of the club's alleged grounds for the snub bemusing.

I will prefer Victor Osimhen to both Manchester United strikers anyday because Osimhen has some qualities both strikers do not possess. Osimhen is very strong physically and very good in the air which is something the United strikers are not so good at. Again Victor Osimhen has made quite a reputation for himself which is being the African best last year and also stirring Napoli to their first ever league title so it is Osimhen all day for me.

Rodrygo will be a good option for Liverpool if Real Madrid can sell him for them.
The player can decide to go to Liverpool since his role in Madrid have several players including their almighty Vini Jr and Mbappe, and I am sure Ancelotti will look for a reliable striker in which if he is able to bring a striker, Rodrygo need to leave so that Mbappe and Vinicius can have good time to play in both left and right depending on how the game turns to be; but two of them in support of any reliable striker will be a powerful combination for Madrid because they will score more goals than they are doing now.

Juventus wanted the player to become a legend in the club since they don’t want to leave him; or they will give him contract extension so that they can put a huge release clause  in case any team will come for him; while Chelsea on Boniface; I don’t think it will work.

Rodri was injured in the Arsenal game and is out for the season. Manchester City have to make a transfer to replace him. There are many names in the press but I like Hakan Çalhanoğlu because I think he can easily adapt to Pep's system. Also, his career in Milan and Inter is very good. This transfer won't be easy but Manchester City can sign him if they don't want to lose the season. They seem to be a bit more comfortable in the league this season but if they want to be more serious in the title race I think they have to make a good transfer...

Yes, Man City's ambitions to dominate the Premier League were dealt a blow when Rodri was injured and ended the 2024/25 season early. This is certainly the biggest challenge for Pep Guardiola this season. When it is not possible to supplement from external resources, in the context that Hakan Calhanoglu still has a contract until 2027 at San Siro, it is clear that Inter is taking the initiative at the negotiating table. I know that if they receive an ideal offer, the Serie A champions will let him go. But Hakan Calhanoglu is also being pursued by Bayern Munich. So this deal is not certain to be completed for Man City.

Therefore, Man City must exploit other options to fill Rodri's void. Certainly, the current players Man City have, Ilkay Gundogan and Mateo Kovacic will be used to fill the void left by Rodri. The most likely candidate is Mateo Kovacic, who has started the first four Premier League games of the season without Rodri.

Barcelona was so lucky. They were so lucky to get a top goalie, Szczesny. He retired after a great season with Juventus last year. Imagine if they had to settle for some 40-year-old goalkeepers who haven't seen top football in half a decade. It would be a disaster for them.

And the decision to bring him to join their squad is top one.

This is a wise choice in their current predicament because after all, with their finances not in the best shape and Ter Stegen injured at the wrong time, Barcelona had to look for options.
Szczesny has indeed reached his prime at Arsenal and Juventus so he decided to retire at the end of last season but it looks like Barcelona's offer is too promising even though in terms of finance it is not very good but in terms of prestige then anyone is difficult to refuse especially a direct offer for a major player option in Szczesny's current condition.

Hopefully this is the right choice to return because after all the Barcelona presure for Szczesny is still very large especially with their condition which is currently still in the top standings with unbeaten then it could make this presure even more difficult. However, I still feel that it was the right decision for Barcelona and Szczesny when he decided to return to the competition.

Szcezny had a good performance recently but he has not played for any team this season so far and this can be a good chance for Barcelona to hire Szcezny. Also considering the performance we saw from Szcezny, I think there is no reason anymore for Barcelona to be worried about their goalkeeper since he was one of the effective players of Juventus when he was playing there.
Now after Szcezny joins Barcelona they can wait for Ter Stegen to be back in good form without any stress because of having a reliable goalkeeper.

I can see Liverpool being interested, but yet another midfield for Real Madrid? I really do not think so. They have Jude playing at the very same position, getting Wirtz doesn't make sense at all and it would not be a good decision to spend this much money on it. Real Madird is not a team that makes bad transfers, and they are not going to spend this much money on a player that they know won't fit with who they have already. Liverpool may want to, don't know if they have that much money, but I think PSG is the one that should be looking into it without a doubt.

It still makes sense for Real Madrid to get Wirtz, though he played in the same position as Jude. But if they can push Jude to the CM, then they can play him together with Jude. They need a replacement for Kroos. He would help control their tempo. But this idea is far from happen.

I still think that if PSG could get Wirtz, they could make that work perfectly without a doubt, it will be something that will get them to be something that will perfectly work for them, they also need a striker that is better than Kualo Muani as well, and I think Osimhen could be a great one. Imagine this current exact PSG team, but add Wirtz and Osimhen to it, I think they would be insanely great, they could do so much damage on UCL with that team.

PSG has many midfielders. They can't add another one, like Wirtz. It makes no sense.

Bayern Munich can likely buy him out from Leverkusen. They are interested in doing that.

He is certainly an interesting player and PSG doesn't care about the money at all, but I doubt that Wirtz would be interested in playing in Ligue 1. He would literally waste his career and I think everyone saw that the league isn't on the same level as the Premier League or Liga. But who knows, if PSG were to go crazy and offers him a gigantic salary, well then maybe it is possible. I hope he won't do it though as Mbappe was also a waste in France.

Bayern probably has a good chance as it might be very possible that Wirtz wants to stay in Germany.

They seem to be a bit more comfortable in the league this season but if they want to be more serious in the title race I think they have to make a good transfer...

Simone Inzaghi will not be willing to let one of his best assets leave the club, as they will also struggle to find a suitable replacement. However, the transfer could also be realized if Manchester City offers a tempting price, Hakan Calhanoglu himself is currently under contract until June 2027. In my opinion, Pep Guardiola will choose to utilize the available players, he has seen the strength of his team last season when he lost Rodri for several games. In terms of age, Hakan Calhanoglu is still considered capable of playing in the Premier League, at least for two or three more seasons.
On the other hand, Rodri long absence will make the competition for the Premier League trophy more balanced, because as we see Manchester City is a bit unstable without their defensive midfielder.

Manchester City maintains the top ranking positions on the league table. It's been competitive for them but they've formed to be the elite club that possess full energy. Arsenal are hard knot to crack for City. Gunners are pre-eminent rival for Manchester City this season. We're going to enjoyed the long competitive race among these two elite clubs. The records are stable on their lane, what are we talking about the current situation of Rodri? He's my favorite player because he's always active on the pitch, fitting into his role. Pep Guardiola knows how to cope with his problems, he's not complaining, he will fixed his problems with immediate effects. Rodri is one of the best midfielders in the European football world, he has delivered his best statistics. Citizens hoped he comes back stronger.

I think Pep would not try to find Rodri's replacement. He can go to the various options with his current lineup. I remind you that when he started Gundo at DM in the Champions League final, he can go back in that direction to fix it. He will probably pair Gundo with Kova.

He knows his team does not urgently need a player to replace Rodri. He can make various combinations to his lineup. He has so many great players who can play in many positions.

Rodri will be out for a long time meaning that there should be an immediate replacement. Pep Guardiola has not hidden his love for the Spanish midfielder, and he believes Rodri is irreplaceable. The club already have good players that can fit into the squad until he recovers. Mateo Kovacic, Ilkay Gundogan or the young player Rico Lewis are all good replacements.

Checking some news outlets and didn't see any news linking Hakan Çalhanoğlu with Manchester City. Mos popt players would like to play under one of the best coaches in Europe who is in charge of one of the biggest clubs in Europe, but Çalhanoğlu is having a good time at Inter Milan. Simone Inzaghi might not also let him go except the transfer money is huge. I also think that looking for Rodri's replacement outside the City squad will give some players the perception that the coach doesn't have confidence in them.

Recently many have doubted Arsenal's front line because this club actually needs an active front line to appear strong and be able to continue to compete with Man City and Liverpool, their rivals have good front lines while Arsenal is below them Mikel Arteta should recruit players needed by the team if they stick with the current players I doubt Arsenal can beat Man City's consistency and the second position could be shifted by Liverpool who this season are trying to provide fierce competition at the top of the standings.

Recently Arsenal has been linked with Florian Wirtz I would be happy if this club recruited the attacking midfielder who would help the team strengthen the front line while Man City lost Rodri for 1 season and this is Arsenal's opportunity to break Man City's dominance but what I know is the price is very expensive but the management might be able to discuss it with Leverkusen management to get a suitable price.

Point of correction, Arsenal has quality forward players, maybe if you had said that they lacked depth I would agree with you easily. As per the attacking midfieder, they have Odegaard and he's still young and vibrant right now. Instead of splashing such figures on  Florian Writz, th y should rather go all out for Viktor Gyokeres. Thoughts? Look this current Arsenal squad, what they need right now is a complete and proven striker who can convert goals. Maybe Alexander Isaak would be great name to mention too!

It's better to sign Gyokeres rather than Wirtz, what Arsenal need is striker, they don't really need Wirtz even though he's skillful and can play in many positions. Both Wirtz and Isak are already overrated, this will make Arsenal spend more money than they should.

Take a look with his statistic, he's always perform in any match, if he not able to score a goal, at least he can give assist. If he can get a good results against Porto and International match, it means he's really that good.

It's actually true that Florian wirtz is actually a very good player and he is very much fundamental in all that was achieved last year by Bayern Leverkusen, which is very good, but is he an upgrade to martin odegard? No, he is not.

And in my own opinion, I don't think it's a smart move for arsenal to spend so much money on a single player that can't even dispose the person playing his own position, because I believe that martin odegard is way much better than him, even though he delivers more goals than Martin odegard.

Then as for career move, if it's going to make sense, I really don't think so for the player in question, because at this stage of his career, it's not a time to be seating on the bench, or being used from the bench, so to me it's best he stays at Bayern Leverkusen where he will develop the more, and if he is actually making a move, he should move to a team that he is guaranteed to start as a regular, not arsenal that he is obviously going to be benched.

Will Leverkusen be willing to let go of this player easily? I don't think so, they will try to keep this player, because the player they currently have is one of the players who has contributed greatly to Leverkusen's game. Moreover, they will still be with Xabi Alonso, who is Xabi's mainstay, so there will be quite a long negotiation to reach an agreement or not at all. Arsenal is expected to be better, one of the things they do is bring in players who are currently considered lacking in contributing to the team's game. It is indeed quite difficult to find players who can really be mainstays, because quality players already have teams now, so they have to spend a lot of money to take over the player.
