Citing Football Insider's report on the 25th (Korea time), British Hotspur HQ said 'Tottenham will not consider any transfer offer for Son Heung-min and will extend his contract by one year and stay with him until next season'
Tottenham is said to believe Son Heung-min's experience will play a decisive role in returning to the UEFA Champions League next season.
Son Heung-min was far from the best career season in this 2024-2025 season. His record plummeted in the second half of the season, and he suffered a foot injury to the point where he missed about a month.
However, Son returned after suffering and played a key role in Tottenham's victory over Manchester United in the Europa League. Tottenham secured a much-desired Champions League berth.
In the meantime, Son Heung-min was at the center of the transfer rumor.
The media reported that "'Saudi Arabian clubs have seriously considered a transfer offer of 50 million euros (about 77 billion won) ' This is a big investment in the veteran player, and for Tottenham, it was an opportunity to secure future resources in line with the current young player-oriented operation method'.

I had a sluggish season at the age of 32 However, it is mainly argued that Son Heung-min's experience and leadership are still very important to Tottenham. Son Heung-min's performance this season was not bad compared to Tottenham's other players, and the media's opinion is that if the tactics are well equipped, there is room for him to regain his form.
England's To the Rain & Back said on the same day that despite his declining skills and physical strength, Son appeared in 46 matches across all competitions, scoring 11 goals and 12 assists. 'This shows that even though we are getting older, we are still more productive in the attacking camp.'"
You can see how Son Heung-min will be used next season by looking at the Europa League final. Veteran players such as Son Heung-min and Ben Davies may not be able to start in all games. Son Heung-min's start on the bench against Manchester United in the Europa League final may be a sign that he does not have the power to start in important games.
Nevertheless, Son's experience and leadership as captain could go a long way toward competing against top-level teams in next season's Champions League.
Earlier this year, Tottenham activated a one-year extension option included in their existing contract with Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min will remain in the team until the upcoming 2025-2026 season. If that happens, there is a high possibility that they will enter negotiations to renew their contracts next year. If he fails to renew his contract with Son Heung-min, he will have to play as a free agent (FA) without transfer fees.
