Barcelona interested in signing Son Heung-min!

According to Spanish outlet El Nacional, Son Heung-min is reportedly open to joining Barcelona, and the Catalan giants value his experience while also seeing him as a key figure to expand their influence in the Asian market.

 

Barcelona eyeing Asia’s top star

 

Currently serving as Tottenham’s captain, Son’s contract with the club is set to expire next summer, with no significant progress in renewal talks. 

 

This raises the possibility of the Korean forward leaving as a free agent during the summer transfer window.

The report states that Barcelona is considering the possibility of signing Son on a free transfer. 

 

At 32 years old, while Son’s performance may have slightly declined, he remains a reliable player who could strengthen Barça’s attacking options. 

 

One of the most popular Asian players

 

Additionally, as one of Asia’s most iconic football stars, Son’s massive appeal in the region could help Barcelona enhance their global market presence.

 

However, Son’s salary could pose a significant challenge to this potential move. 

 

High salary is biggest problem to Son joining Barça

 

Currently earning £200,000 per week at Spurs, Son would likely seek a lucrative contract if he departs as a free agent. 

 

Given Barcelona’s precarious financial situation, offering Son a deal that meets his expectations might prove difficult.
