Football transfer rumours: Spurs to replace Son with Harvey Barnes?

theguardian.com

Son Heung-min to the Saudi champions Al-Ittihad? That would be a painful one for Spurs supporters with the South Korean approaching legend status, despite a fairly underwhelming campaign last season.

Still, £51m for the 30-year-old is not to be sniffed at, if: a) the figure from ESPN is to be believed b) Son toiling last season was not just a blip and c) you can stomach the whole Saudi Arabia thing.

Al-Ittihad, who have already nabbed Karim Benzema for gazillions and are close to snagging N’Golo Kanté for €100m (£86.2m) a year, are hoping to defend their league title next season.

Tottenham are under no pressure to sell, though, with Son contracted to 2025. Perhaps Daniel Levy would flog Son and sign a younger model in the shape of Harvey Barnes?
