Tottenham demands a significant fee for Son Heung-min amid transfer interest
- Son Heung-min is approaching the final year of his contract with Tottenham.
- He has been the subject of interest from Saudi Pro League clubs over the past two years.
- Tottenham will only consider significant offers for Son this summer.
In South Korea, speculation over Son Heung-min's future at Tottenham Hotspur has intensified as he approaches the final year of his contract. Having played for Spurs for nearly a decade, Son is now 32 years old and recovering from injury issues that impacted his performance in the previous season, during which he scored only 11 goals. Despite this setback, Son's global recognition and status as the team's captain following a successful stint under Ange Postecoglou adds considerable value to his marketability and to Tottenham as a club. Spurs previously activated a 12-month extension option in Son's contract, but they are now faced with interest from Saudi Pro League clubs, who have pursued him for the last two years but have not succeeded in persuading him to leave yet. The situation has created a dilemma for both the player and the club as Tottenham prepares for their pre-season tour in South Korea, understanding that any departure must be weighed against financial implications. As a key figure at the club, the potential transfer of Son, along with the uncertainty surrounding Postecoglou's future, could significantly reshape the dynamics at Tottenham Hotspur heading into the next season.
