“It’s speculation, but… it’s not out of the question”

“Tottenham? It’s speculation (yet), but it’s not a non-issue, so I think (the transfer rumors) are out there.”

‘High school prospect’ Yang Min-hyuk (18, Gangwon FC) spoke out about the Tottenham transfer rumors after a strong performance against Jeonbuk Hyundai.

Yang Min-hyuk scored one goal and provided one assist in the 25th round of the Hana Bank K League 1 2024 match against Jeonbuk Hyundai at Gangneung Sports Complex on Oct. 26. It was his eighth goal and fourth assist of the season in one game.

He scored the opening goal. In the 32nd minute, he gently collected a short pass from Cho Jin-hyuk near the right side of the box and fired a shot at the near post to open the scoring.

Nine minutes into the second half, Yang Min-hyuk assisted on the team’s second goal as he took advantage of a poor clearance by a Jeonbuk player on the right flank and passed the ball to Kim Kyung-min in front of him. Kim didn’t miss the opportunity and split the Jeonbuk goal with a bullet-like shot.

Kangwon then went on to secure a two-goal victory, despite Jeonbuk’s late rally.

With his move to Tottenham becoming a reality, Yang Min-hyuk continued his streak of attacking points.

On the morning of the same day, Fabrizio Romano, a journalist familiar with the European transfer market, announced on his social media account that “the transfer of 2006-born Yang Min-Hyuk to Tottenham has been confirmed,” with the words “HERE WE GO,” which are used to signify that a transfer is imminent, and that “the first medical has already been scheduled and he will sign a long-term contract with Spurs.

On July 24, the BBC also reported that “Tottenham are closing in on the signing of South Korean winger Yang Min-Hyuk. He is expected to complete the move by the time Spurs face the K League’s best 11 at the Seoul World Cup Stadium in South 카지노사이트 추천 Korea on July 31.”

According to Romano and the BBC, Yang will sign with Tottenham and then return to Gangwon for the 2024 season on loan. He is then expected to join Tottenham full-time next January before deciding his next move.

However, Gangwon are remaining tight-lipped. CEO Kim Byung-ji is expected to announce the news of Yang’s transfer through the club’s YouTube Live scheduled for the 28th.

After the game against Jeonbuk, Yang Min-hyuk said, “There hasn’t been an official announcement yet,” adding, “(So) it’s still speculation. But it’s not a story that doesn’t exist, so I think (the transfer rumors) have come out.”

There is a possibility that Yang Min-hyuk will appear on Club Live on the 28th.

“I think I should probably make an appearance,” Yang Min-hyuk said, adding, ”I think the president will take care of that part.”

“I was unintentionally nervous and under pressure,” he said, before explaining that he overcame it well.

Returning to the league, Yang Min-hyuk said, “The offensive points are piling up, and I think I can boldly challenge for the top scorer.”
