Tottenham is preparing to recruit Son Heung-min to fill his vacancy.
England's The Boy Hospers reported on the 4th (Korea time) 'Tottenham named Hodrigo as Son's replacement'
Citing a report by Spain's As, The Boy Hospers said, "'Tottenham should replace Son Heung-min. According to the news, Levy has already picked a replacement. Tottenham want to sign Rodrigo. Hodrigu is not a key player under coach Xavi Alonso, so he may leave the team at the right price. However, Tottenham need to convince him of their ambitions because Hodugu wants a team to win the league and the European Champions League' he said.

Son Heung-min wrapped up his journey at Tottenham with two matches of the '2025 Coupang Play Series' against Newcastle United held at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 3rd. Everyone's eyes were on Son Heung-min at the stadium. Son Heung-min announced his last at Tottenham in person at a press conference on the 2nd. Since he announced that he would break up with Tottenham at the end of this summer, he was replaced in the match against Newcastle and celebrated the end with applause from all players and fans.
Son Heung-min has a time for farewell and new challenges, but Tottenham is not much different. Tottenham should fill the vacancy of Son Heung-min, who has been responsible for one of the team's attacks. Tottenham, which has already struggled to fill Harry Kane's vacancy, also seems to be difficult to fill Son Heung-min's vacancy easily.

The alternative candidate chosen by Tottenham is Hodrigu. There is a possibility that Hodrigo could leave Real this summer. Hodrigo, who moved to Real in 2019 and began to make his name known as Brazil's top prospect, has contributed to winning La Liga and European Champions League along with steady growth. Hodrigo's clutch ability, which has steadily saved the team from crisis since joining the team, was enough to satisfy fans. He has already scored 68 goals and 51 assists for Real.
In the 2024-2025 season, Kylian Mbappe wore a real uniform, changing Hodrigo's position. After bringing Mbappe in, Real had no choice but to reduce Hodrigo's playing time to form the offensive team. The possibility of a transfer is being discussed along with the prospect that it has been pushed out of the plan under Alonso this summer. If Tottenham has a Hodrigo, it is expected to be the best recruit to minimize Son Heung-min's gap.
Meanwhile, Tottenham is said to be able to leave its No. 7 number vacant until a suitable person comes to succeed Son Heung-min. Attention is also focusing on whether Hodrigu can succeed Son Heung-min.
