Son Heung-min has opened up about his journey from South Korea to Europe as a teenager. Appearing on The Late Run podcast, the forward recalled moving to Hamburg at 16 and using animated television show SpongeBob SquarePants to learn the German language.
Even though the transfer window in Europe has closed, moves are still possible. Jonas Hofmann is reportedly considering a departure from Bayer Leverkusen in the near future.
On deadline day, Bayer Leverkusen could apparently have sold attacking player Malik Tillman for a seven-figure sum, but the Werkself ultimately turned down a corresponding offer from the Premier League.
Newcastle United and Aston Villa are reportedly planning to reignite their pursuit of Bayer Leverkusen forward Christian Kofane in January. Both Premier League clubs failed to land the 20-year-old before the deadline but remain keen on securing his signature.
