Tottenham Line Up Liverpool, PSG Target as Ideal Son Heung-Min Replacement | OneFootball

Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid feels uncertain after a quiet performance at the FIFA Club World Cup. Now that the transfer window is open, rumors about a possible move are picking up steam.

PSG’s stance isn’t entirely clear. Josué Cassé from Foot Mercato said the Brazilian forward isn’t currently on PSG’s radar, which clashes with what Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg reported. Plettenberg also mentioned that Tottenham Hotspur aren’t involved.

However, Plettenberg pointed out that Liverpool and PSG are keeping an eye on Rodrygo. PSG remains very interested and is actively looking for a top young winger. Still, any deal might hinge on how the market shakes out over the next few weeks.

Diario AS reports that Tottenham is interested in signing Real Madrid winger Rodrygo to replace Son Heung-min. Nonetheless, Spurs will need to do some convincing. Foot Mercato’s Santi Aouna reported that Rodrygo isn’t interested in joining Tottenham.

While the Premier League side are said to have inquired, there are no active talks. If the Brazilian leaves Real Madrid, his sights are set on a club with a higher profile than Tottenham.

Tottenham could spend the money needed for Rodrygo, Diario AS doesn’t believe the Premier League club will do anything wild to ensure that a deal happens.

“Spurs have already formally requested permission from Real Madrid to begin direct talks with the player, with the intention of making him the offensive star of the new project led by Thomas Frank,” Diario AS wrote.

“The signing won’t be easy: Madrid have set his price at €90 million. Tottenham have financial muscle following the arrival of a new investor, but they refuse to pay both the high wages and the full transfer fee at the same time.”
