Son Heung-Min is sought by Los Angeles FC and Tottenham will not stand in the way if he wants to leave and a deal can be closed.
There has been no formal offer of the MLS club, but there has been contact to explain an interest in signing the 33-year-old Spurs captain while looking for a new star stitch after losing former Arsenal and Chelsea Center Vooruit Olivier Giroud to Lille.
Lafc is said to prepare a deal in the £ 15-20 million region, which could be sufficient to seduce Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy into conversations.
Son was in the last year of his contract in North Londs and scored 173 goals in 454 matches and the Europa League was abandoned in May's status as a legend in N17 is guaranteed.
He has also been a commercial phenomenon and there is no prospect that he will leave for Asia for the pre-season tour, which contains matches against Arsenal in Hong Kong on Thursday and three days later in Seoul in Seoul.
Tottenham's reimbursement for the matches would be reduced without a son, the biggest trek in Asian football. Similarly, Son does not want to miss any other opportunity to represent traces in South Korea or to abandon his millions of fans in his home country.
As soon as they return, the issue of his exit becomes more urgent.
Spurs will take into account everything the son has done for the club. If it is a movement he wants to make, they will try to help him achieve this, although Levy does not allow that to undermine costs.
There is a new chapter that unfolds under Thomas Frank, who did little to suppress the feeling that son would leave the club before the end of the transfer window when he spoke last week.
Frank's team is well filled in broad attacking areas and the shape of the son was disappointing last season compared to his own high standards.
They have signed Mohamed Kudus van West Ham and permanently did the loan from Mathys Tel from Bayern Munich. There are Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, Wilson Odobert, teen Mikey Moore and Manor Solomon also in the team.
There is no strong interest in Son from Saudi -Arabies Pro League clubs this summer. There were questions in 2023, but he made it clear that he was not enthusiastic in moving to Saudi.
A move to the US is much more logical for a year before she, together with the World Cup final, a tournament for which South Korea has already qualified, and in particular to LA a city with the largest Korean community outside of Korea.
Lafc signed Hugo Lloris, the predecessor of the son as captain of Spurs, 18 months ago. The MLS is halfway through the season and they are fifth of 15 in the Western Conference with games in hand after they participated in the Club World Cup.
