Tottenham Hotspur undergoes a transition period, but this period of change is built at the top of the success of the victory of the Europa League with Angel Postcoglou.
The decision was taken thereafter to separate from Big Angel, the promise of which held was not sufficient to save its position after facing 17th place in the Premier League.
But the change is underway, with Heung-Min Son, 33, now ready to close the door of his emblematic trip to the club, announcing that he played his last in Tottenham White.
The spurs must consider the replacement of the son
Sound, 33, is one of the most important and most influential Tottenham stars in modern times. But there is no doubt that he is in decline in the past two years, less electric and catchy.
The South Korean informed Daniel Levy during the pre-season tour of the Spurs that he wishes to explore a move this summer, and that wish was granted, with the MLS Lafc side which pushes to guarantee its signature.
While the signing of 55 million pounds sterling by Mohammed Kudus from West Ham United has strengthened Frank’s offensive flanks, Tottenham could do with another to replace his son.
Well, given the interest of the club for Rafael Leao of AC Milan this summer, it seems that he could be the perfect man for work, with previous reports from the initiate of transfer Ben Jacobs suggesting that the Portuguese winger is on the radar.
What Rafael Leao would bring to the Spurs
Leao, 26, is one of the broad most threatening attackers in the world, a high -speed runner and a danger from several angles. Through 260 appearances with Milan, he posted 70 goals and provided 62 assists.
Although it is somewhat incoherent in front of the goal sometimes, Leao’s talent is indisputable. In fact, analyst Ben Mattinson described it as “one of the best left wingers in the world”, so he has the ability to replace an aging son.
The fact that the son is no longer at his peak makes the transition more fluid, of course. The South Korean icon began the final of the Europa League for the last mandate from the bench, highlighting this point.
But he still scored 28 goals and posed on 24 assists in 82 games in the postocoou system, the Australian greeting his quality of “world class”.
Leao endured a difficult campaign in Italy, in the same way as his son, with I Rossoneri flattering to deceive. However, he still resumed 25 goal contributions in all competitions, ending the year with certain similarities with the superstar which will soon move spurs.

They rank quite also, in the past year, which may shed light on how the son is always a high-level player and his sale will bite it.
But Leao’s superior athletics is clear, and it is something that Frank would use a categorical effect. The Danish boss, do not forget, demonstrated with Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo in Brentford his ability to raise the game of dynamic attackers.
With the fleet feet and a lot of Flair in addition, Leao could be the perfect complement to this new chapter of Tottenham, offering Frank an outing on the left side for many years to come.
