MLS Transfer Buzz: Son Heung-min and Mason Greenwood Speculated Moves
As the MLS offseason approaches, LAFC’s forward Son Heung-min is reportedly considering a loan deal to AC Milan prior to the World Cup. Meanwhile, Mason Greenwood of Marseille might reunite with Marcus Rashford at Barcelona. Stay tuned for the latest updates on transfers around the world.
Latest Developments
Son Heung-min could move to AC Milan thanks to a contract clause, often referred to as the “Beckham clause,” that permits him to play in Europe during the MLS winter hiatus. At 33, he aims to stay fit for South Korea’s preparations for the upcoming World Cup.
Mason Greenwood, currently with Marseille and a former Manchester United player, has scored four goals this season. However, he is feeling homesick for England and might be intrigued by a transfer that brings a familiar teammate like Rashford. If Greenwood joins Barcelona, Manchester United would receive 50% of the transfer fee due to conditions from his previous contract.
Additionally, Manchester United is looking into acquiring Jobe Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund. The 20-year-old, who transferred from Sunderland over the summer for €30 million, has faced limited playing time and potential tensions involving his family may complicate his situation.
In another development, Liverpool could show interest in signing Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth and Anthony Gordon from Newcastle United, as they search for replacements for Mohamed Salah. Despite Salah’s recent contract extension, his future remains uncertain.
Finally, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is aiming to bring in Morten Hjulmand from Sporting CP, but both Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City are also keeping an eye on the midfielder, potentially usurping United’s plans.
