Tottenham Hotspur are prepared to drop their asking price for Heung-min Son by nearly half to ensure that the Spurs captain gets the move that he wants.
It has been widely reported over the last week that Son could leave Tottenham following their pre-season tour of South Korea.
It emerged a few days ago that Los Angeles FC have now submitted an official offer to Tottenham for Son, but it is not yet clear what the value of their bid is.
According to a new update, the Lilywhites are now ready to drop their asking price for the forward considerably if the player decides that he wants to join the MLS club.
Tottenham ready to slash Heung-min Son asking price after LAFC approach
GiveMeSport claim that Spurs valued Son at around £35m earlier this summer as they anticipated Saudi Pro League clubs to make a move.
However, they have now learned that their captain is not keen on making a move to the Middle East and would prefer a switch to the United States.
Spurs chiefs are aware that LAFC or other MLS clubs would not be able to pay big money for Son and are thus willing to accept £15m-£20m if the South Korean signals an intention to move to America.
Tottenham Hotspur want to part ways with the player on good terms, with the MLS thought to be emerging as the most likely destination for the 33-year-old this summer.
Son will make the final decision on his future
Last week, Thomas Frank admitted that Tottenham face a ‘tricky’ decision on Son’s future, given that he has given a decade of loyal service to the club.
It has been widely reported that Tottenham will allow Son to decide if he wants to stay or leave this summer, with the Lilywhites having no intention of pushing him out the door even though he has only one year left on his contract.
According to some sources, Son has not ruled out staying at Spurs until the January window to see if he can become a central part of Thomas Frank’s plans in N17.
