July 24th news, according to well-known transfer reporter Romano, MLS MLS team Los Angeles FC is in contact with South Korean star Son Heung-min, intending to sign him under his command. This news has attracted widespread attention in both European and Asian football.

It is reported that Los Angeles FC is currently in preliminary contact with Son Heung-min, trying to impress the 33-year-old South Korean striker and invite him to go to the United States at the end of his career. This MLS Western Conference strong team has attracted many big-name stars to join, including Bale, Chiellini, etc., and now, their target is the number one Asian leader Son Heung-min.

The current goalkeeper in the Los Angeles FC team is Son Heung-min's former Tottenham teammate and French goalkeeper Lori, which undoubtedly adds an emotional bond to a potential transfer deal.

Son Heung-min's contract with Tottenham has the last year left and has not yet renewed the contract with the club. At the press conference before the season, Tottenham Hotspur coach Frank avoided talking about the future choices of several core players, saying that everything is still being evaluated. According to British media reports, Son Heung-min will hold face-to-face talks with Frank in the near future to discuss his future where he will go and career plan, which will become a decisive step.

An insider revealed that Son Heung-min is not opposed to leaving the European top league, especially after leading Tottenham Hotspur to win the UEFA Cup last season, he believes that he has fulfilled his dream of being at Tottenham and is seeking new challenges and pace of life in his career.

In fact, after helping Tottenham win the European trophy in a rare European history, Son Heung-min received extremely high praise from the outside world and unanimous recognition from fans. As a forward captain with excellent offense and defense, he contributed important goals and key assists last season and is an indispensable soul figure in Tottenham's frontcourt.

However, the age of 33 also means that Son Heung-min's peak period is about to end. At this time, choosing to go to the Saudi League or the American League will not only receive considerable salary, but also open up a new lifestyle, which is an attractive option for the well-known veterans.

At present, Saudi Arabia has also shown some interest in Son Heung-min, but he himself prefers the lifestyle of Los Angeles, the United States. The city where Los Angeles FC is located not only has a huge Asian community, but also an important blessing for Son Heung-min's business value. If he can join the FA League, his influence will far exceed the stadium level.

It is worth noting that Los Angeles FC is not the only AMF club that is interested in Son Heung-min. Previously, Miami International also tried to contact Son Heung-min, but the latter preferred the living environment in Los Angeles.

In addition, from a competitive perspective, MLS has moderate competitive pressure for Son Heung-min, which is more conducive to extending his career life. Moreover, Son Heung-min still maintains excellent competitive form, and still scored double-digit goals in various competitions last season, which is enough to prove that his strength is still online.

Analyzing from the perspective of brand and image, as the banner figure of Asian football, if Son Heung-min can join MLS, it will greatly increase the league's attention and influence in the Asian region.

This is not only a stadium reinforcement for Los Angeles FC, but also a strategic signing, which means they have the opportunity to use Son Heung-min's fame to open up the Asian market and double their commercial value.

It is speculated that once the transfer negotiations go smoothly, Son Heung-min may officially join Los Angeles FC in early August, by which time he will become one of the most commercially valuable Asian players in MLS history. At present, the negotiations are still in their infancy, but both the players and the club are full of expectations for the future and optimism is heating up.

Looking back at Son Heung-min's career, he has played in the Premier League for a full 10 years since he transferred from Leverkusen to Tottenham in 2015, playing in more than 380 games and scoring 154 goals. He is the most successful Asian player in Tottenham's history. He is not only a banner figure for Tottenham, but also the pride of Asian football.

Now, his next stop may be about to open a new chapter. For many fans, no matter which team Son Heung-min wore, he is still the "light of Asia" that tries his best and smiles.

In summary, the rumors that Son Heung-min switched to MLS are not groundless. Los Angeles FC's strong willingness, the players' openness to transfers, and Tottenham's contract life make this deal full of possibilities.

The transfer trend may gradually become clear in the next few weeks. And let's wait and see whether this Asian superstar can successfully land on MLS.
