Report: Real Madrid set to meet with Spurs officials for talks regarding 28-year-old

According to Turkish journalist, Ekrem Konur, Real Madrid are eyeing a move for Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min.

Son has made a blistering start to the season, having scored 15 goals and provided 8 assists so far this campaign (transfermarket.com).

The South Korean is one of the most in-form forwards in world football and has forged a lethal partnership with Harry Kane.

Reports indicate that Tottenham are negotiating a new contract with the 28-year-old which would put him on par with the club’s highest earners, Harry Kane and Tanguy Ndombele.

Italian transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano even claimed that it was only a matter of time before Son puts pen to paper on a new five or six-year contract with the club, with an agreement now said to be “really really close”.

However, Konur has now claimed that Zinedine Zidane is a fan of the former Bayer Leverkusen man and Real Madrid will meet with Spurs officials soon to discuss a potential transfer.
