Tottenham need to sign some new players for their team to have a chance to break into the top five during the 2024-2025 Premier League season and have a chance at making European football. But, with their current players, they might lack fitness, consistency, energy, and technique. That is why they are looking to bolster their squad in the off-season to get the best player possible for their team.
One recent target that Spurs have had their eye on in the last few weeks has been a South Korean prodigy who is taking the football world by storm. Will Tottenham be able to sign him, or will someone else get to him first?
Tottenham Aim to Sign South Korean Wonderkid
Tottenham Hotspurs are just a few hours or days away from signing a teenager from South Korea, often hailed as the ‘next big thing’ in football. Min-Hyuk Yang is just an 18-year-old who has already made waves this transfer window due to his athletic nature, prowess on the pitch, technical ability, and potential to make him one of the best players of his generation.
He is currently talking with Spurs to get started signing his first English Premier League contract and make the move from South Korea to the United Kingdom this upcoming winter. Until then, he will stay with his current club in Korea, FC Gangwon.
Min-Hyuk Yang, born in 2006, just turned 18 years old and has already proven himself on the pitch. He has made 18 appearances for the U17 South Korean national team and scored one goal for his country. He is valued at around $1.5 million in the transfer window, making him an absolute steal for Tottenham to get on their squad for this year.
Min-Hyuk has made 24 appearances in the K League 1 so far in the 2024 season. He has scored seven goals and added three assists to his tally throughout the season. Yang has played 90 minutes in 90% of his appearances, showing he is fit, healthy, and ready to take on the Premier League. Plus, he made the starting eleven lineup in 100% of the games so far this season in the K League.
Since his contract expired with his team in June of this year, it is no wonder he is looking to move on and score a good deal from a team abroad to continue his playing career — and Tottenham can do just that.
Tottenham Next Year
Tottenham are looking to better their performance last year in the Prem. Last season, Tottenham ended in fifth place, which is a great result all things considered. They are a club with less money and means than some of the ‘big’ organizations, like United and Chelsea, but Spurs still found a way to finish higher on the ladder.
They earned 66 points on the year, which was just one win short of getting fourth place and beating Aston Villa. However, to break into the top three sides, they will need to score a lot more goals and earn at least 10 more points in the season. Hopefully, their new South Korean signing can help their proficiency in front of goal and get them to score more than 80 goals this upcoming campaign.
Tottenham starts off the 2024-2025 Premier League season against Leicester City, one of the bottom teams from last year. If they can start the year with three points, they will have the confidence needed to break into the top five on the ladder early on in the campaign. With players like Son Heung-min, Werner, Moore, and Maddison, we know that a top-five finish is possible.
