Liverpool have set their sights on Tottenham star Son Heung-min according to Sport1 (h/t Metro). The report claims that the South Korean is open to moving away from Tottenham and Jurgen Klopp is looking to add more attacking options to his side for the upcoming season. Manchester United and Arsenal are also interested in the talented winger.

Son won’t be coming on the cheap as he still has a couple of years left on his current contract and Spurs want at least €70million for the winger.

The 27-year-old Son captained South Korea side at the World Cup and has been one of the best players under Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham.

Son had another productive season for the London club as they finished in the top-four. The 27-year-old scored 18 goals and provided 6 assists in all competitions.

Even if the asking price is set at €70million, Son would be an amazing signing for us given the quality he brings to the side.

The South Korean can play in almost any attacking position in the final third of the pitch and would provide us with a lot of options to chop and change the side.

However, it would be really difficult to negotiate with Daniel Levy and we may have to match Tottenham’s asking price if we are to land the talented Asian star.
