Overview

• Diario AS via Football España reports Real Sociedad will demand Kubo’s full €60m release clause and are unwilling to negotiate, with four years left on his deal.
• English reports citing Fichajes say Spurs are seriously considering the Japan international and could match the price, though no offer has been made public.
• PSG and Atletico Madrid are also credited with interest, and Everton explored a move earlier in the window according to the same reporting.
• Tottenham’s search for a wide attacker has accelerated following Son Heung-min’s departure and James Maddison’s knee injury during a broader summer rebuild.
• Kubo, 24, can operate on either flank, scored in La Liga’s opening round for Real Sociedad, and is viewed as offering both tactical versatility and Asian market appeal.
