Tottenham 'Captain' Rumors of Son Heung-min's transfer to Saudi Arabia are hot.
In the 2024-2025 season, which recently ended, Son Heung-min finally shook off 'Han of no involvement'. He rose to the top of the Europa League and kissed the trophy for the first time in 15 years since his professional debut in 2010.
It went down in history as Tottenham's winning legend. He broke Tottenham's 'trophy drought' as captain. He nestled in Tottenham in August 2015. Ten years have passed. He was frustrated in the European Champions League (UCL) final in the 2018-2019 season and the League Cup final in the 2020-2021 season.
Even Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), the star of Tottenham's long 'Champion Drought', left for the championship. Among the starting players, only Son Heung-min held the position. He said "The reason I stayed at Tottenham was because I wanted to do things that others couldn't do" and eventually opened up the championship.
Tottenham lifted the trophy for the first time in 17 years since reaching the top of the League Cup in the 2007-2008 season. In the case of the European match, it was the first joy in 41 years since winning the UEFA Cup, the predecessor of the Europa League in the 1983-1984 season. Son Heung-min was rewarded with a 10-year commitment to Tottenham by winning the championship.

He is out of contract at the end of this season, but Tottenham activated a one-year option earlier this year. Son Heung-min's contract with Tottenham runs until June next year. England's 'The Sun' recently reported that Son Heung-min is targeted for recruiting the Saudi Arabian club.
Tottenham sources say the club will consider Son Heung-min's transfer if a huge offer comes in this summer. Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Al Nasr, is expected to leave Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabian clubs named Son Heung-min as Ronaldo's replacement and explained that Son can promote the Saudi Arabian League to East Asian fans
And Son Heung-min is loved as a national icon in Korea. Saudi Arabian clubs initially aimed to recruit Liverpool's Mohamed Salah. As Salah decided to remain on the England stage, interest turned to Son Heung-min as an alternative target.
Son Heung-min can barely win a large salary to move to Saudi Arabia. Tottenham, on the other hand, will lose 'Korea Mayor'
Tottenham won the Europa League and secured a ticket to play in the European Champions League (UCL) next season. Major changes are also expected in preparation for UCL.

Britain's 『Football London" drew attention on the 31st (Korea time) by surprisingly revealing 10 people \'Killers. Football London' is expected to see a lot of movement in Tottenham's entire squad. Enze Postecoglou, who ended the 17-year trophy drought with his Europa League victory, also said, "It has not yet been confirmed whether he will remain in the next season." Postecoglou's future will certainly affect the future of certain players. Christian Romero is also likely to be included on the list. Many players will leave the team due to contract conditions or other factors,' he said, revealing a list of 10 players.
But there was no name for Son. Hishalisson and Ives Bissouma were included in the list. "'Football London' said of Hisalisson 'The problem was injury, he showed his worth in the final weeks of the season, but he struggled to get the chance to play in general' With two years left on his current contract, Tottenham will be happy to accept the offer when the appropriate offer is made for him, who was named to Brazil's national team in June. Hishalisson, 28, pointed out that good physical condition has a good effect, but the biggest problem is maintaining physical condition for a long period of time.

Regarding Bissouma 'He played in the Europa League at the end of the season, but had a difficult season overall. The season began with the club's own disciplinary action, and he started only 16 Premier League games. His contract with Rodrigo Bentancur expires next year. Bentancourt is likely to renew his contract. Tottenham will seek a move this summer not to lose Bissouma in 2026 in vain, he stressed.
Timo Werner, whose lease will end, as well as Pierre-Emile Hoibier and Briann Hill, Sergio Reguilon, Manor Solomon, Alejo Bellis, Fraser Forster and Alfie Whiteman, who have already split from the Marseille lease, are also included in the 'Killings'.
