Tottenham want $45 mil. from Wolfsburg for Son

Son Heung-min

English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur reportedly requested 40 million euros ($45 million) to send their Korean forward Son Heung-min to the German Bundesliga club Wolfsburg, according to the German tabloid, Bild, Tuesday.

The report said the German club offered $36 million to Spurs for acquiring Son during the summer transfer window, which ended at midnight, Aug. 31, but the English club rejected the offer as they wanted 8 million euros more.

Though Wolfsburg missed their bid to acquire Son in the summer transfer market, the report added that it remained keen on signing the Korean in the January window.

Spurs signed the forward from the Bundesliga’s Bayer Leverkusen in a $29.53 million deal last year. He only managed to net eight goals for the team in 42 appearances in all competitions.
