BOMBSHELL: TOTTENHAM IN SECRET £150M TALKS TO SIGN THE NEXT SON HEUNG-MIN… BUT THIS GUY IS SON 2.0 ON STEROIDS!!! “£100M+ IS JUST THE STARTING BID” – Spurs ready to smash British transfer record for 2026 to land the Asian superstar who’s already better than Prime Sonny! You won’t believe the numbers he’s posting… Click before Levy actually completes the deal of the century!
Tottenham Hotspur supporters will have the chance to see Heung-min Son once more this week.
On Tuesday, he will return to north London, smiling warmly and likely fighting back emotion as he bids farewell to the club that shaped the peak years of his remarkable career.
In truth, Spurs have never truly replaced their former captain. Much like the situation at centre-forward after Harry Kane’s exit, a player of comparable calibre has yet to be recruited.
However, the landscape at Tottenham could look very different by 2026.
Spurs planning major attacking reinforcement
Back in October, the club confirmed a significant £100m equity injection.
The finer financial implications could be debated endlessly, but the core message is straightforward: Thomas Frank is expected to benefit from substantial squad improvements. Fresh investment is on the horizon, and new signings—particularly in attack—are an urgent priority.
The need is obvious. Son’s influence, even as he entered his thirties, remained exceptional. Across his final two Premier League campaigns, the 32-year-old still netted 24 goals and contributed 19 assists.
That level of output has not yet been replicated within the current squad.
One player who could change that narrative is RB Leipzig’s emerging star Yan Diomande.
Tottenham’s interest in the teenager has been confirmed by Caught Offside, and if Frank succeeds in bringing him to N17, Spurs may secure the new attacking focal point they have been searching for.
According to the report, Tottenham are among several elite clubs to have sent scouts to monitor the 19-year-old winger this season.
The level of competition surrounding him suggests a valuation of roughly €80m—around £68m.
Additional reports have also claimed that Spurs held “very advanced talks” with the player’s representatives only last week.
Why Yan Diomande fits Tottenham’s future
Although Diomande is only at the early stages of his professional journey, he has already demonstrated that he can compete with Europe’s top young talents.
Since arriving in the Bundesliga, he has made an immediate impact for Leipzig, scoring seven goals and providing four assists in just 15 appearances this season.
The Ivorian’s biggest strengths lie in his technique and his capacity to glide past opponents with a fluid, unpredictable dribbling style.
Coach Harry Brook has even predicted that Diomande will soon be “worth £100m plus,” underlining the winger’s meteoric trajectory and why Tottenham might want to act quickly.
His development is highly encouraging across multiple facets of his game.
Diomande combines physical strength with explosive acceleration, and he is beginning to show ruthless composure in front of goal.
His willingness to press and contribute defensively makes him an even more appealing proposition.
In many ways, this profile will remind Spurs fans of another Bundesliga arrival—Son himself, who joined from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015.
Like Son in his youth, Diomande is showing a rare blend of goal threat, creativity, and selfless work rate.
Son may be impossible to replace like-for-like, and perhaps that is why the club initially elected not to seek a direct replica—similar to their approach after Kane’s departure.
But now, Spurs urgently need real top-tier attacking quality to keep pace with the Premier League’s elite.
Diomande possesses all the attributes, in abundance, to grow into a winger of Son-level influence.
And perhaps, just like the Korean icon, he could soon make the journey from Germany to the Premier League, carving his own legacy in Lilywhite.
