Son Heung-min is set to leave this summer in search of a new team that can win the title while recognizing his value in the transfer market. Tottenham don't catch Son Heung-min like that. It is expected to focus only on receiving as much transfer fee as possible. In the end, this season is the last time Son Heung-min plays in a Tottenham uniform. Specifically, the final match of the 2024-2025 season against Brighton will be Son Heung-min's farewell match. It is May 26th.
Tottenham Hotspur News, a British media outlet that deals with Tottenham-related news, reported on the 28th (Korean time) 'Son Heung-min is very likely to leave Tottenham this summer' If Son Heung-min's transfer is confirmed, the final match of the season, the match against Brighton (May 26), will be a farewell match.
In a way, it's already a foregone conclusion. Tottenham's policy on Son Heung-min has remained strictly unchanged since a year ago. I don't want to continue my contract with Son Heung-min anymore. Initially, Son Heung-min and Tottenham's contract was due in June this year. This included a one-year extension option.

Tottenham hesitated. I kept thinking about whether to offer Son Heung-min a contract renewal for at least two years. If he agrees to renew his contract with Son Heung-min, he will be a member of his team for the rest of his life. This means that Son Heung-min will remain at Tottenham until his retirement from active duty. It was worth enough. So far, Son Heung-min's performance and team contribution have been valuable in many ways, including for sales in the Asian market, including Korea.
However, Tottenham did not make a decision immediately. Son Heung-min's age was the biggest obstacle. This means that as soon as you decide to renew your contract, you have to give yourself a place in the team until your mid-30s, which is not in line with Chairman Daniel Levy's master plan to reorganize the team with young players in their 20s. In the end, Tottenham decided to let Son Heung-min go and chose to activate the extension option instead of renewing the contract.
In other words, the future between Tottenham and Son Heung-min has already collapsed as soon as the extension option is invoked. Re-signing through negotiations in the future was just an innocent sound like a story in a fairy tale from the beginning.
Tottenham have been banging on the calculator since then. This is to make a plan to say goodbye to Son Heung-min at the most optimal time. Although he concluded that there is no future value within the team, he is still a player worth selling in the market. If so, you have to sell it for as much transfer fee as possible. The worst-case scenario is to let him go on a free contract (FA) without any income.

Son Heung-min also knows that Tottenham will never send a contract renewal. The timing of Tottenham's escape must be decided. In fact, the best transfer chance for Son Heung-min is the transfer market in January next year. The only obstacle to the transfer, the transfer fee, will disappear due to the occurrence of FA qualifications. Son Heung-min's market value without transfer fees is quite high. Any team deserves a love call.
But Tottenham can't let it go like this. So Tottenham will try to sell Son Heung-min this summer somehow. Son Heung-min's vacancy can be filled with young players somehow. Tottenham believes that it is better for the team in the long run, although it will not be possible to avoid a drop in performance right away.
Regarding this situation, British Football Insider said earlier this year that `Son Heung-min and Tottenham only extended their one-year contract. Son Heung-min said he could agree to leave the team on a free transfer by this time next year, predicting that Tottenham will move to seize the opportunity to cash in Son Heung-min. It is flowing to the observation deck.
