Yang Min-hyuk, one of the best prospects in Korea, is expected to receive an opportunity in the second division of England.

England's Football League World reported on the 5th (Korea time) that Portsmouth is interested in Tottenham's Yang Min-hyuk.

Football League World expects Yang Min-hyuk to leave the team on loan in the summer transfer market. Yang Min-hyuk was highly praised for his impressive performance in Gangwon, and he joined Tottenham thanks to his performance. However, he was immediately loaned to the Queens Park Rangers (QPR) because it was not a priority in the team. He then spent the second half of the season there, scoring two goals in 14 appearances.




Manager Thomas Frank then said it would be difficult to put Yang Min-hyuk in the first team immediately, and a temporary loan may be needed for growth. According to the news, coach John Musinho is interested in recruiting Yang Min-hyuk. He seems likely to return to the Championship (second division). However, the recruitment will not be simple because other clubs in the second division are also showing interest, he explained.

Yang Min-hyuk returned to Tottenham this summer after experiencing a QPR loan for half a season after joining Tottenham in December last year. Yang Min-hyuk, who did not receive his debut opportunity immediately after joining Tottenham, gained experience at QPR and returned to Tottenham this summer to watch the situation between the main competition and re-lease.

Initially, some young players opted out of joining Tottenham's pre-season tour and on loan for growth opportunities. Mikey Moore is a representative. Moore went into loan talks for Rangers instead of a pre-season tour, leaving for the Scottish stage. Yang Min-hyuk also received an opportunity on this pre-season tour, but he is likely to leave on loan until the 2025-2026 season. Considering Tottenham's winger Debs, including Wilson O'Dober, Hishalisson, Matisse Tel, Mohamed Kudus and Brennan Johnson, it is safe to say that the loan is inevitable.

Fortunately, not a few clubs seem to want Yang Min-hyuk. Portsmouth has been named, and several other championship clubs are reportedly interested. For Yang Min-hyuk, it seems that he will be able to adapt to the championship club faster based on his experience at QPR. The experience of the championship itself can be a way to quickly melt into the English stage. Kane, previously considered a Tottenham legend striker, also laid the foundation for his growth as a star player by gaining experience on loan at championship clubs such as Leyton Orient, Millwall, Norwich City and Leicester City as a child.

Ahead of his departure from the UK, Yang Min-hyuk also said, `My goal is to participate in as many games as possible. Only when he plays in many games (2026 North Korea, China and the U.S.), he will be eligible to be on the final list of the World Cup. I will choose the team that can play as much as possible"He said that it would be a good choice for me to go to a team where Heung-min can play a lot." Attention is also focusing on which team Yang Min-hyuk will wear the uniform next season.
