Tottenham Hotspur captain, Heung-min Son, is edging closer to a move to Major League Soccer (MLS) side Los Angeles, marking a new chapter in his illustrious career. The South Korean star has reportedly reached a verbal agreement with the American club, with Tottenham expected to receive a transfer fee of over €15 million.
Renowned transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, confirmed that all parties involved have settled on the terms, and Son is now awaiting the completion of paperwork before the move is officially sealed. The forward, who was absent from Spurs’ return trip to London, is expected to finalize the switch in the coming days.
While Son’s exit signals a major headline in the European transfer window, Turkish giants Besiktas are making moves of their own. The Istanbul-based club has officially submitted a bid to Leicester City for Nigerian international Wilfred Ndidi, as they seek to reinforce their midfield ahead of the new season.
Talks between Besiktas and Leicester are ongoing, with Ndidi identified as a priority signing to bolster the squad’s spine. If the deal goes through, Ndidi would join fellow Nigerian superstar Victor Osimhen, who recently completed a blockbuster transfer to Galatasaray.
Osimhen’s move to Turkey has not only energized the Super Lig but also created ripples in the European transfer market. Italian side Como are now hopeful of concluding a deal for Spanish striker Álvaro Morata. With Osimhen poised to lead Galatasaray’s attack, Morata is keen on seeking regular playing time elsewhere.
Como has already struck an agreement with Morata and his parent club, AC Milan, but the final piece of the puzzle rests with Galatasaray. The Turkish champions are reportedly demanding a compensation fee before releasing Morata, making the forward’s exit dependent on further negotiations.
As the transfer window heats up, these moves underline a busy and strategic summer for clubs across Europe and beyond, with player movements poised to reshape team dynamics in the upcoming season.
