Shocking! Why Tottenham want to stay in SON. Giving up the main player + bench mentor + club icon. I want to be a good-looking SON

There is an obvious reason for this.
Tottenham Hotspur News, a Tottenham media outlet, said on the 28th (Korea time) 'Tottenham wants Son Heung-min to retire from the club. However, no re-signing table has been set up.'Son Heung-min is not playing well in the final third, but Tottenham are known to want to keep him.'
The Times reported on the 26th that `'Tottenham's high-ranking officials want Son Heung-min to retire from the club. It is not a target for sale in the transfer market this summer,' it reported.
This is a thorough report from Tottenham's point of view.
The media outlet said, "'Tottenham can sign Son Heung-min for an extension. However, conditions are necessary. It highlights his legacy as an icon of the club, and can provide a custom role that evolves with age. 'You can switch to a mentor-like figure or a versatile replacement who still affects the game and relieve the pressure of starting every game.'"
Son Heung-min is the star player of Tottenham. It's legendary.
Play for 10 seasons. It is under contract until the summer of 2026. Tottenham have activated a one-year extension option. However, there is no offer to renew the contract.
From Tottenham's point of view, Son Heung-min is still attractive. However, it is not in terms of performance but in terms of profitability. Still an Asian icon. It has enormous value in terms of marketing.
This is also the reason why Saudi oil money, including RT Hard, is seeking a transfer fee of 60 million euros.
Tottenham also evaluates that it is better to remain as an Asian icon as a mentor of the team until retirement rather than transferring Son Heung-min this summer.
However, I think of Tottenham.
Son Heung-min has ups and downs this season. There is also age. However, there is still enough competitiveness. As Tottenham's main player, he has the most offensive points this season.
Tottenham want Son Heung-min to renew his contract and commit himself in the match against each other and on the bench. It's the best role for Tottenham, but it's not Son Heung-min. This means that he has to be pushed from the main player to the bench, and he has to play the role of the club's 'face wife'.
There is no need for that. Son Heung-min is still competitive, and Barcelona and Bayern Munich are aiming. Manchester United also wants a player like Son Heung-min under Ruben Amorim.
With its competitiveness still sufficient, Tottenham seems to be emphasizing only its commitment without offering a specific renewal offer.
