Tottenham has been facing some challenges recently. Although the team have been winning in cup competitions, their form in the Prem has been very underwhelming. With the injury crisis around, they’ve managed to win just one of their last 10 matches and currently sit in 15th place, marking a new low for the Lilywhites.
As the transfer window approaches its end, Tottenham may need to improve the squad. According to top Journo, the club is considering sending new signing Yang Min-hyeok out on loan after a change in strategy.
The Korean is among the several promising young talents that Tottenham Hotspur brought in over the summer. The 18-year-old officially joined the club a few weeks back and has been included on the bench three times under Postecoglou, though he has not yet made his debut. While Postecoglou has shown enthusiasm for Min-hyeok, he probably didn’t expect to rely on him so quickly. However, the club’s unusual injury crisis has now led him to think about giving the young player a chance.
Alasdair Gold believes the Korean is up for a Loan move
The young winger is yet to have his first start in the Premier League, but his impressive achievements are hard to overlook. Last year, Min-hyeok was awarded Young Player of the Year in the Korean league, where he made a significant impact with 18 goals and assists over 38 matches for Gangwon FC.
Tottenham journalist Alasdair Gold recently shared insights on Min-hyeok’s current situation while discussing the club’s injury issues and the few options available to Postecoglou. Gold revealed that Min-hyeok is not currently seen as a viable option, with no immediate plans to involve him in the first team. This highlights Tottenham’s focus on signing players for the future rather than for immediate impact.
Gold suggested that Min-hyeok could be loaned out in the January transfer window to aid his development, provided Tottenham can bring in additional attackers and find him a suitable club where he can get regular game time. He mentioned that a loan move could potentially be to a lower division in England, or even to countries like Belgium or the Netherlands, offering Min-hyeok valuable experience in European football that would be different from his K League background.

A potential loan move for Min-hyeok would mark a shift in plans, as the youngster had initially been eager to secure minutes for Tottenham this season. Upon his arrival in North London, he expressed his readiness to make an immediate impact in the Premier League, a sentiment that the club may now view differently given the current circumstances.
