Manchester United have set their sights on Tottenham Hotspur star Heung-min Son, as per reports.
United forwards Marcus Rashford and Antony are showing their attacking talents elsewhere. Ruben Amorim, meanwhile, is having to deploy midfielders in attacking areas.
The Red Devils avoided another embarrassing defeat in the Premier League as second-half goals from Bruno Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte helped them share points with Everton, who sit a place above the Mancunian giants in the Premier League table.
How the 15th-placed United will finish the season remains unclear but if INEOS want Amorim to succeed in the long run, they need to strengthen his attack. A report in Spain has mentioned an intriguing name in that regard.
Manchester United want to sign Son Heung-Min
According to Fichajes, United are “going all out” to sign Son from Tottenham.
He will enter the final year of his contract at Spurs at the end of the term. However, the Spanish outlet suggest he could depart north London in the coming months.
United want to add a proven goalscorer to their ranks and see the Spurs captain as an ideal fit.
Son is known for his incredible pace and decisiveness in the final third, having scored an incredible 172 goals for the Lilywhites after moving to the Premier League from Bayer Leverkusen.
It is understood that United would be willing to make a “significant offer” to convince Spurs to part ways with their talisman, who is into double figures for goals and assists this season.
The 32-year-old’s profile is similar to Rashford, as both left-wingers like to use the space behind the defence to make a difference.
However, we are skeptical that Daniel Levy would let Spurs’ most important attacker join United. Further, INEOS have so far shown a desire to sign young players capable of adding intensity to Amorim’s side.
Recently, the Peoples Person relayed a report claiming United could trigger Wolverhampton Wanderers superstar Matheus Cunha’s (25) release clause to reinforce their attack.
