'Son Heung-min will never leave.'

Tottenham Hotspur are on alert. This is because proper reinforcement of power has rarely been achieved since Son Heung-min left 'Captain'.

Jack Grealish, who was considered as a substitute for Son Heung-min, also seems to have gone down the drain. While Grealish is showing his willingness to stay in Manchester City, news is that he has begun loan transfer negotiations with Everton, not Tottenham.




British media The Sun reported on the 6th (Korean time) 'Everton has begun negotiations on a one-season loan deal with a £100 million star player that Pep Guardiola has given up on.

Grealish, once the best star player in the EPL, lost his chance to play in Manchester City last season and is on the verge of being released this summer. Despite his outstanding talent, his form has collapsed due to privacy issues, such as being frequently seen at parties and drinking parties.

Manchester City manager Guardiola has also completely stopped expecting Grealish. Therefore, Tottenham once sought to recruit Son Heung-min, considering it as an alternative.

However, Everton suddenly appeared and are negotiating a transfer. Everton are in negotiations to loan Grealish for a season, according to global sports media The Athletic. Of course, there is no guarantee that an agreement will be reached. This is because the conditions at stake are very complex.

The biggest problem is Grealish's high weekly pay of £300,000. But Everton are looking for a way to address this.

Grealish has been training separately from the Man City squad since last month amid rampant speculation about the future. It was Guardiola's decision. The decision is to exclude Grealish, who played only seven games last season and has not maintained a sincere training attitude, from the team.

But Grealish still shows his affection for Man City. Grealish was shown talking to a fan at the Oasis, a British pop group, last month, where he `I love Manchester City more than anything else. I also love Manchester City fans. They are the best in the world." It seems that he still believes that he can return to Manchester City's starting lineup.

Anyway, the important point is that Tottenham has been completely excluded from Grealish's plan. With Son Heung-min's transfer, successive failures in the transfer market, and James Madison's serious knee injury, Tottenham is warned that it could enter the new season with the worst power ever. Director Thomas Frank's worries are likely to deepen.
