Liverpool could offer three players in Son swap deal

June 1, 2022

According to rumours, Liverpool may opt to launch a profitable bid for Tottenham star Son Heung-min when the transfer window reopens in a few weeks.

Sadio Mane looks ready to leave Liverpool in the near future, with the Senegalese winger intent on finding a new challenge away from Anfield this summer, and the Reds have been linked with a move for Son to fill the vacancy in Jurgen Klopp’s attacking trident.

Son recently won the Premier League Golden Boot after a stellar season with Tottenham, and he is under contract with the north Londoners until the summer of 2025.

However, he appeared on Liverpool’s radar earlier this year, and the Reds were considering a move for his signature if Spurs failed to qualify for the Champions League next season, according to football.london.

Tottenham did, however, secure their spot in the competition, implying that a transfer for Son could be difficult to arrange for Liverpool during the upcoming summer window.

They may yet decide to give a few of their current stars in order to sweeten the deal and entice Spurs to sell up in the near future.

With that in mind, let us examines three potential choices for Liverpool if they decide to pursue Son over the summer!

Sadio Mane

The most obvious alternative would be a swap including Mane, who is anticipated to inform Liverpool of his wish to depart before the start of the next season.

The 30-year-old would be a direct replacement for Son and has already established himself as one of the Premier League’s top players, with a move to Spurs potentially suiting all parties involved.

However, it remains to be seen whether Mane is willing to join another Premier League side or if he is just interested in joining Bayern Munich, who are rumoured to be interested in bringing him to the Allianz Arena this summer.

Diogo Jota

Liverpool might potentially offer Diogo Jota to Tottenham in exchange for Son, with the latter able to provide an upgrade on the former if such a move can be completed in time for next season.

Jota has played a crucial part for Liverpool in recent years, often keeping Roberto Firmino out of the side with his goals and link-up abilities, but whether Spurs would accept him in place of Son is another issue.

Roberto Firmino

Firmino might be another option for Liverpool in a part-exchange deal for Son in the coming months. The Brazilian forward’s presence in attack has been key to the Reds’ success in recent years, but he currently plays a bit-part role at Anfield and could benefit from a fresh start elsewhere.

Firmino, like Jota, is not a winger but could create a lethal partnership with Kane if Conte opts for a two-up-top formation in the event that Son is unavailable when the season resumes.
