He blaugrana They have been linked with big names such as Rafael Leao, Luis Díaz, Nico Williams and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, among others, although any move for those players would require a huge investment.

Barcelona eyes Son Heung-min

Now, according to reports in England, broadcast by Sports WorldTottenham Hotspur captain and superstar Son Heung-min is also on Barcelona’s agenda.

Son could therefore be on the move in the summer as a free agent, with Barca among the clubs monitoring his situation.

In fact, the report even goes so far as to claim that there have been contacts between the striker and Barcelona sporting director Deco.

The potential commercial impact of signing Son, particularly in Asia where he is a major football icon, is seen as highly attractive to the blaugrana.

Contract terms could be a sticking point

The main sticking point for the agreement to be carried out would be the duration of Son’s contract. Given his age, Barcelona are expected to offer a contract of no more than two years, in line with their recent veteran signing strategy.

Indeed, this approach has been applied to players such as Ilkay Gundogan and Iñigo Martínez, who joined without transfer fees in recent times.

The Tottenham ace, however, could expect a longer contract. However, the opportunity to play for a club of Barcelona’s stature that is also likely to offer the UEFA Champions League could appeal to the attacker.
