The latest news comes from Shandong Taishan team for the core of the midfield Sun Junhao bid for 10 million euros, this price seems to make Sun Junhao landing in the British Premier League aspirations overshadowed by a layer of shadow.
According to the Korean media, Southampton of the English Premier League and Fulham of the English Championship have shown great interest in Son Joon Ho. Fulham contacted Son's agent to inquire about the player's contract details, transfer possibilities, and annual salary.
However, Shandong Taishan's asking price for Fulham is as high as €10 million, a figure that makes Fulham's transfer plans delicate. According to the Korean media, Son Jungho may still stay with Shandong Taishan this season.
Undoubtedly one of the top players in the K-League, Son Jungho was named MVP of the K-League in 2020, helping Jeonbuk Hyundai win the title, and joined Shandong Taishan in February 2021 for a transfer fee of €4.5 million. In his first season in Shandong, he helped the team win the Chinese Super League and AFC Cup double with his outstanding performances. Had the Chinese Super League awards ceremony not been canceled due to an epidemic, Sun would have almost certainly won back-to-back MVPs.
It is reported that Sun Jungho will return to the Chinese Super League (CSL) on the 24th to prepare for the new season with Shandong Taishan, as he was not selected for the Korean national team. Since the end of last season, Shandong Taishan has been in talks with Son to extend his contract, which is set to expire in December 2023.
