Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy is already moving to find a replacement for Son Heung-min.

British talk sports said on the 12th (Korea Standard Time) 'Tottenham understood that it would have to break the club's transfer fee record in order to recruit Antoine Semeno of Bournemouth. Semeno's agent held talks with Levy to discuss a possible summer transfer, the report said.

The report is not just a push to recruit a striker, but a move within Tottenham that even has the possibility of selling Son Heung-min in mind. Currently, Tottenham has a position to proceed with Son Heung-min's release if an appropriate proposal is made.

Even if Thomas Frank, who will soon become Tottenham's coach, wants Son to stay, there are even talks that Son Heung-min will be sold at the club level. As such, Tottenham seems to be moving sincerely in releasing Son Heung-min.




The reason for the release is obvious. Son Heung-min has one year left until the end of his contract. Son Heung-min needs to be sorted out this summer so Tottenham can collect cash for the last time. Considering Son Heung-min's annual salary burden and age, this summer, when he can receive a high transfer fee, could be considered the right time to sell. If Son Heung-min does not intend to renew his contract with Tottenham, Tottenham will not try to leave Son behind.

Tottenham must also know that Saudi Arabian clubs are interested in Son Heung-min. Accordingly, Chairman Levi seems to be already in behind-the-scenes contact to prepare for Son Heung-min's departure.

Semeno has an excellent ability to break down the opponent's defensive line based on his strong physique and explosive speed. He plays both left and right sides, but prefers the left side. If Son Heung-min leaves, he can be selected as a substitute.

He grew up in Bristol City in the English Championship (minor league) and wore his Bournemouth jersey last season. He showed good potential with eight goals and three assists in his first season in the Premier League, and has grown to another level with 13 goals and seven assists this season. It is not easy for Semeno to replace Son Heung-min's skills, but his role will not be small given that Tottenham has been selected as the main striker of the next generation.

Chairman Levy appears to want Semeno, but the world is not flowing the way Levy wants it. Bournemouth are demanding 70 million pounds (about 1,291 won) for his transfer. This is more than 65 million pounds (about 120 billion won) paid to Bournemouth last year when Tottenham recruited Dominic Solanke.

Even if Semeno was selected as a substitute for Son Heung-min, it is hard to imagine chairman Levi paying £70 million for one player. Levy would probably prefer a Matistel re-lease rather than an expensive Semeno recruitment.
