Recently, Italian media vlogger Fabrizio Romano broke the inside story on the transfer of Japanese starlet Kenyoung Kubo on his talk show. He revealed that Kubo Kenyoung's Premier League journey may be just around the corner.
Romano puts it bluntly: "More than one Premier League side has been drooling over Kubo Kenyoung, and the buzz has been building since the summer. Unfortunately, due to various circumstances, the door to a transfer was not opened. But next summer, Kubo's dream of playing in the Premier League may come true."
Romano further elaborated, "If Real Sociedad receives an offer that satisfies him, it is highly likely that Kubo Kenyoung will join the Premier League. In my opinion, he has long been ready to show his strengths in the top flight."
Looking back, Kubo Kenyoung's name is closely associated with the giants of the English Premier League such as Liverpool, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. Despite his heart's desire, various reasons prevented him from doing so. Now, the 23-year-old Japanese international is shining at Real Sociedad in La Liga, contributing goals and assists in 22 matches and 17 starts this season, with his popularity and price tag flying in tandem.
It is worth noting that Kubo Kenyoung's contract with Real Sociedad expires in the summer of 2029, with a release fee of €60 million. This huge transfer fee is a deterrent to potential buyers, but Kubo Kenyoung's potential and performance will undoubtedly bring a good return on investment.
Kubo Jianying's dream of playing in the Premier League has been a source of concern for countless fans. Where will he go next summer? Regardless of the outcome, we look forward to seeing this Japanese starlet shine in his future career and write his own legend.
