Tottenham make a blockbuster signing: Rodrygo replaces Son Heung Min.

Tottenham are accelerating negotiations for the transfer of Rodrygo, an ideal replacement for Son Heung-min, who has just confirmed his departure.

The departure of Son Heung-min – the captain and icon – will leave a huge void in Tottenham's attack.

Immediately, Tottenham's sporting department and chairman Daniel Levy chose Rodrygo Goes as the replacement.

AS reports that Tottenham are closely monitoring the Brazilian striker and have even asked Real Madrid for permission to approach him directly.

Rodrygo has a contract with Real Madrid until June 2028 and has never publicly expressed any intention to leave the Bernabeu.

However, his playing time at the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 under coach Xabi Alonso was quite limited.

The emergence of young talent Franco Mastantuono – who will officially join on August 14th, when he turns 18 – the growing maturity of Arda Guler, or the breakthrough of Gonzalo Garcia, are not beneficial for Rodrygo's position.

In principle, money is not an issue for Tottenham . Spurs saved on the team's highest wage bill after Son Heung-min's departure – €11.4 million per season (equivalent to £190,000 per week).

This amount of money is enough to invest in a new star. In London, everyone is talking about Rodrygo – who is also being courted by Jose Mourinho to join Fenerbahce.

In addition, if Son is replaced, Rodrygo could play in his preferred position – the left wing of the attack, where he feels most comfortable.

At Real Madrid, Rodrygo always had to give way to Vinicius on the left flank.

Tottenham's participation in the Champions League is also a significant advantage. Furthermore, the football project under Thomas Frank holds great promise in the race for the top spots in the Premier League.

Currently, Tottenham are focused on conducting a medical examination and officially signing Joao Palhinha. After that, the plan to activate the Rodrygo "big-money" transfer will be implemented.
