Real Madrid have been told that they should have signed 'consistent' Son Heung-min. over someone like Eden Hazard as the South Korean's Spurs form in 2021/22 Premier League has been evaluated.
Los Blancos have had mixed successes in recent times with new acquisitions, with Chelsea duo Thibaut Courtois and Hazard both starting off on the wrong foot in the Spanish capital. However, the goalkeeper has resurrected his fortunes as demonstrated against the Blues over the two legs of the Champions League quarter-finals. For Hazard, though, his nightmare spell in Madrid has been summed up by a bad injury that has forced him under the knife and consequently out of the clash against his former club, whom he could only watch on from the stands.
The hefty £89million fee rising up to £100m was really a lesson for Florentino Perez and co to reassess their transfer strategy as Son Heung-min would have certainly been a slightly cheaper alternative back when the deal was conducted. But now, if Carlo Ancelotti's side were to go in for the former Bayer Leverkusen man, he would be most likely to reject this approach as he and Harry Kane are reportedly happy in N17 under the guidance of Antonio Conte.
