The soccer media "Four Four Two" reported on the 1st (Korea Standard Time) that "Manchester United and Liverpool are competing to recruit Kubo."
"Cubo is attracting the attention of another big European club. Juventus is also watching the situation," he said, adding, "According to Spanish reports, Saudi Arabia also wants him."
Kubo is a hot player in the winter transfer market. However, he has expressed his commitment to stay at Real Sociedad until the end of this season. The situation is expected to change when the summer transfer window opens. Several teams are expected to stage bidding for him.
Kubo has developed into one of the most potential wingers in European soccer. After growing up with the Barcelona Youth Team in Spain, Kubo made his J-League debut (15 years, five months and one day) and became the youngest player to score (15 years and 10 months) at FC Tokyo in 2016. He has been highly evaluated since he was young.
Real Madrid, which saw his potential high, signed a contract with Kubo in the 2019-20 season. He did not play for Real Madrid. He has been on loan with several teams including Mallorca, Villarreal, and Getafe. Kubo, who decided to transfer to Real Sociedad in the 2022-23 season, is playing a key role in the team through his outstanding performances.
He has been playing as a key player in his team this season. He has six goals and four assists in a total of 25 games. He has six goals and three assists in 18 La Liga games, and he has played in 16 games as a starter.
As a result, his value increased. He has the highest ransom among Asian players. He beat Son Heung-min, Kim Min-jae, and Lee Kang-in. The statistical media "Transfer Markt" updated the ransom of Asian players in December last year. Kubo's transfer fee went up from 30 million euros to 60 million euros.
Liverpool wants Kubo as Mohamed Salah's successor. Manchester United plans to bring Kubo if Marcus Rashford leaves. With the two Premier League clubs most willing to recruit, even Juventus has expressed its will. Rumors of Kubo's transfer are expected to heat up this summer.
