How likely is Son Heung-min (Tottenham) to transfer.
Son Heung-min is 32 years old, but he is showing great performance at Tottenham. His contract with Tottenham ends in 2025. He has not been able to renew his contract with Tottenham and his future has not been decided.
Atletico Madrid is interested in Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min was rumored to go to Saudi Arabia, but the player wants to stay in Europe. Contact was made between the Atletico Madrid team and the agent. We had an informal conversation, he added.
Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to Son Heung-min's move. There is a lot of talk about the possibility of renewing Tottenham's contract to Saudi Arabia. On top of that, Atletico Madrid also showed interest.
Son Heung-min, the captain who joined Tottenham in 2015, will end his contract after the 2024-25 season. As the next season approaches, local media are dealing with Tottenham's situation and speculating on Son's future moves.
Tottenham was determined to protect Son Heung-min because it sent Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), a former top European striker, to another team. Tottenham is recognizing that it is a spiritual pillar of the locker room as it is expanding its influence from key players to young players. Some warned that if Tottenham sends Son Heung-min, it will not be able to win the title, which was a long-cherished task.
Tottenham formed a consensus by negotiating re-signing with Son Heung-min. Football Insider announced in March that Even Chairman Daniel Levy will personally renew his contract. He also reported that he will continue to accompany Tottenham unless there is a big deal, saying he will sign the renewal of his contract this summer.
Recently, things have been different. Son Heung-min and Tottenham's current contract is until June 2025. However, conditions for the club to arbitrarily extend the contract for another year are included. Sports media The Athletic predicted that Son will wear Tottenham's uniform by 2026. It is expected that the club will not sign a new contract and continue to accompany Son by utilizing the existing contract clause.
Public opinion was prevalent that I do not give legendary treatment to the invocation of a one-year extension option. When José Mourinho's Fenerbahce said he would recruit Son Heung-min, rumors were raised that he would scrap the one-year extension option and renew the contract for several years, but there was no clear move.
According to Football Insider, Tottenham's plan is clear. He will sign a contract with Son until 2026 using the option of extending his contract by one year. After that, he will gain an advantage when renewing his contract, and if the situation is not good, he will be sent off in 2025.
A year later, the deal could be even sold. Alan Hutton, who played for Tottenham in the past, claimed, I think Tottenham put an option to extend their contract for one year to protect them. If someone replaces Son, then Tottenham can get a transfer fee accordingly. The view was that Tottenham would make money from the transfer fee using Son with one year left on their contract.
Son, who was born in 1992, is at an age when his performance will decline any time. As a result, the club could have thought that a long-term renewal of his contract with Son would result in a huge financial crisis.
However, it is a different story if the main character is Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min is a legendary player of Tottenham in name and reality, and has been watching Tottenham for nearly 10 years. As a result, Tottenham fans are insisting that Tottenham should treat Son as a legend by renewing his contract for a long time.
In fact, Son said, I think I have achieved many things during my 10 years with the same team. We have to be consistent all the time and trust the club. We also have to give something back to the club and the fans. We received a lot of love from the fans. It's something I'm really thankful for.
He also said, But I don't think I'm a Tottenham legend. As I said before, I want to win this team. Winning is one of the things I really want to do. If I win, I would be happy if you call me a legend then. I came to Tottenham to win. So I hope this year will be a really special season.
Son has a high chance of staying. Tottenham knows how big Son is. He is in his 30s, but he is still a great player. He is the best star of Tottenham and seems to be enjoying his captaincy, said Alessdare Gold, a reporter for Football London.
Tottenham and Son Heung-min have the option of a one-year extension contract. This option gives a sense of stability, and if both sides want to renew their contracts, they will likely reach an agreement, he said.
However, as no news has been heard about the renewal of contract, several clubs are seeking to recruit Son. Saudi Arabia is particularly interested. Saudi Arabian clubs are showing interest in Son. Money is not an important issue for Son. However, if Son decides to move, Saudi Arabia is expected to offer an unusual tax exemption. Saudi Arabia can be an attractive option as it is close to Korea, it reported.

British media outlet Sports Mall also said, It is unclear whether Son Heung-min will be able to share a long-term future with Tottenham. If he enters the last six months ahead of the expiration of his contract in 2025, he will be able to freely negotiate with other teams according to Boseman's rules from January next year. Son Heung-min's contract reportedly includes an option to extend 12 months, but Tottenham has not yet activated this option.
