Tottenham shoots 22 billion won to a 'unknown' striker on Sunday → leads the recruitment campaign

Is it because Coach Anji Postecoglou likes Japan? Tottenham is poised to spend 15 million euros (20.2 billion won) for the 23-year-old Japanese winger, who is not well-known.

The player in question is Yuto Suzuki, a winger from Denmark's prestigious Brünby, who has not yet been called up by the Japanese national team.

Tottenham news reported that "The Last Word in Spurs" quoted Danish media such as Bolt and SIA on the 19th that Tottenham revealed a move to pay 15 million euros and about 22.1 billion won in Korean currency to Brønby to recruit Suzuki.

Suzuki is a striker who made headlines two years ago when he exploded multiple goals in the 2022 U-23 Asian Cup quarterfinals against Korea and became the main player in a 3-0 complete victory. Since then, he left his original team Shimizu S-Pulse to move to Brønby, Denmark, last summer, and successfully made a soft landing with nine goals in 24 games in his first season in the Nordic stage.

As he played for Brønby, he was unable to participate in the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup, which ended with Japan's victory earlier this month, because his team was not called up.

In fact, Suzuki has some European experience, playing on loan in Strasbourg, France, when he was in Shimizu. As a result, he is playing hard in Brünby, which is slightly lower than France.

The SIA had already reported on Suzuki's love call last month. "Scouts from 12 different clubs visited the home game against Mitwilan," the media said on Monday, adding that the entire club was named after posting a photo of him.

Manchester City, which made the European treble last season, three English Premier League clubs including Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, as well as Ajax in the Netherlands, Stuttgart in Germany, Union Berlin, Hoffenheim, Wolfsburg, France Nantes, Real Sociedad in Spain, Genk in Belgium, and Parma in Italy.

It covers everything from Europe's top-notch clubs to big league advancement bases. In the game, Suzuki led the team to a 2-1 victory, scoring both goals scored by Brønby.

Meanwhile, Tottenham is emerging as a leader in recruiting Suzuki this month. Australia's Postecoglou, who leads Tottenham, once took the helm of Japan's J-League prestigious Yokohama F. Marinos for three and a half years from 2018 to the summer of 2021. As he knows Japanese soccer inside out, he seems to be trying to bring in a young Japanese player during the Tottenham rebuilding process.

Coach Postecoglou once continued to bring in Japanese players from Celtic, a prestigious Scottish club that moved after leaving Yokohama, and had up to six players. Even after Brandon Rogers returned after his departure, Celtic's Japanese players are being appointed and three are playing as the main players.

Watchers say that Suzuki's position and style of play are similar to those of Son. Of course, the class cannot be compared with Son's, but Postecoglou might want to spend more than 20 billion won to raise Suzuki like Son.   토토사이트
