JUST IN: Al-Ittihad to raid Tottenham for Son, spurs eyeing Raphina as replacement

FootballTransfers can confirm that Al-Ittihad, a Saudi Arabian team, is eager to get Tottenham

star Son Heung-min during the forthcoming summer transfer window.

Mohamed Salah was previously the target of a €175 million deal from the Saudi Pro League team,

which Liverpool rejected.

However, it appears from people close to the situation that Al-Ittihad is now focusing on Salah and

Son in an effort to strengthen their attack. The action is said to be a component of a strategy to

the ageing Brazilian striker Romarinho, whose deal is scheduled to expire in the summer.

Furthermore, there are compelling signs that Karim Benzema might leave in the next window.

The plan is to sign both Premier League players, Son and Salah, and pair them with Abderrazak Hamdallah, who has scored an outstanding 13 goals in 16 games so far this season, to make a

dangerous frontline.

Son, a key player for Tottenham, had already stated last summer that he wanted to stay with the

team.

Recent events, meanwhile, imply that the South Korean international might reconsider his options, particularly if Tottenham is unable to qualify for the Champions League this year. The 31-year-old’s Spurs deal is scheduled to end in 2025.

What wingers are Spurs interested in?

Son was used as a left winger when Harry Kane was playing, but since the England captain left,

he has been positioned as a center-forward. Richarlison’s rise to prominence and his significant contributions under manager Ange Postecoglou have given Tottenham a reliable No. 9 right now.

It’s unclear if Timo Werner, who was signed on loan in January, will be a permanent fix. We’ve

heard that Tottenham is also keeping an eye on Federico Chiesa and Raphinha, two wingers, in the summer.
