[OSEN=우충원 기자] “What is the relationship between Saudi Arabia and China!”.
The Korean national soccer team (ranked 27th in FIFA rankings) led by coach Jurgen Klinsmann played El Salvador (ranked 75th in FIFA) on the 20th at Daejeon World Cup Stadium in the second leg of the June A-match and drew 1-1. Korea, which had previously lost 0-1 in the first match once morest Peru on the 16th, recorded a draw in the second match. Coach Klinsman’s ‘Masquerade’ victory, which took over as the Korean command tower in March, promises the next. Klinsmann recorded 1 draw and 1 loss (Colombia 2-2 draw, Uruguay 2-1 loss) in 2 consecutive matches in March. On top of that, he also suffered defeat in the game once morest Peru. Son Heung-min, who was sitting on the bench that day, was replaced by Hwang Hee-chan in the 25th minute of the second half and stepped on the ground. Son Heung-min finally came to the game. Son Heung-min was unable to play in the first game once morest Peru on the 16th due to recovery from sports hernia surgery. He had to watch the game from the bench. On this day, the game was played from the middle of the second half to the end. Ahead of the match, Son Heung-min received surprise news. ESPN said, “Son Heung-min has been offered a contract from Al Ittihad, a professional football club in Saudi Arabia, for 4 years, receiving 30 million euros (42.1 billion won) each season.” He added, “Al Ittihad is optimistic regarding Son Heung-min’s joining and has prepared a bonus of 60 million euros (84.2 billion won) to recruit Son Heung-min.” Al-Itihad is the champion of Saudi professional football in the 2022-2023 season. Recently, it became a hot topic by signing striker Karim Benzema, who played for Real Madrid (Speen). He is also set to sign midfielder N’Golo Kante from Chelsea. It is known that Kante was offered an annual salary of 139 billion won from Saudi Arabia. Son Heung-min is the Premier League’s top scorer (23 goals) in the 2021-2022 season. In his last season, he scored 14 goals in the official match despite bad injuries such as an orbital fracture. However, it is unclear whether Al Ittihad will be able to recruit Son Heung-min right away. Son Heung-min has a contract with Tottenham until 2025. ESPN also said, “Tottenham has no intention of giving up Son Heung-min, so there are difficulties in negotiating.”
After the game, Son Heung-min said, “There is a lot of work left to do in the Premier League. (Ki) Sungyong, his older brother said before that the captain of Korea does not go to China. Money doesn’t matter now. It is important to be proud of football and to play in my favorite league.”
Chinese media are of the opinion that Son Heung-min’s remarks were inappropriate.
Sohu.com explained, “Saudi Arabia’s proposal has nothing to do with the Chinese league,” and “It is not appropriate for Son Heung-min to use China as an example.”
