Tottenham Hotspur may have discovered a new star in Yang Min-hyuk as they explore the transfer market. The club, along with South Korean fans, hopes he can follow in the footsteps of Son Heung-min. This summer, Spurs have already added two 18-year-olds, Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall, costing nearly £50 million combined. Now, they are set to sign Yang from K League’s Gangwon, with the winger officially joining in the January transfer window after the Korean league season ends.
In the latest episode of the “Gold & Guest Talk Tottenham” podcast, Spurs correspondents Alasdair Gold and Rob Guest, joined by Korean football expert Sungmo Lee, discussed Yang’s potential. Sungmo described Yang as the best young player in the K League, highlighting his exceptional talent despite still being in high school. Yang made history by becoming the first high school student to receive a professional contract in the K League, thanks to his impressive performances. He won the ‘Young Player of the Month’ award three times from April to June and is praised for his dribbling and finishing skills. Many hope he will become the next Son Heung-min, especially if he joins Tottenham.
