Some even predicted that Tottenham would make a financial gain by selling Son Heung-min. News of Son Heung-min's transfer is expected to be decided after the pre-season tour in Asia.
Tottenham Hotspur News reported on the 21st (Korea time) "Son Heung-min has one year left on his contract with Tottenham, and speculation is rampant, including rumors of a transfer to Saudi Arabia and a possible reunion with Jose Mourinho."," he reported.
Al-Ahli, Al-Nasr and Al-Kadisiya of the Saudi Arabian Professional League are interested in Son Heung-min, and the three clubs are reportedly ready to pay 40 million euros (about 63.2 billion won) for the transfer.
Excluding the Saudi league, an interesting transfer theory is Bayer Leverkusen in the German Bundesliga. This Leverkusen is the team Son Heung-min worked on before moving to Tottenham.

Leverkusen want an experienced striker, but it may be difficult to pay a huge transfer fee as they have to reinforce most positions.
Leverkusen plans to offer Son an annual salary of 30 million euros (47.4 billion won) and argue that it is still unclear whether Son will accept the trip to the Middle East.
Tottenham are doing their best to sell Son Heung-min. Earlier this year, the contract was extended until June 2026 in order not to release Son Heung-min as a free agent.
Some analysts say Son Heung-min is also the most open to transfer since he lifted the UEFA Europa League trophy.
However, manager Thomas Frank said in an interview after his appointment that he would focus not only on maximizing the potential of young players but also on experienced players. There is a possibility that coach Frank will try to prepare for next season with Son Heung-min at the center.
There may be a disagreement between Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and coach Frank, who want Son Heung-min to be sold. Son Heung-min's future is expected to be decided after the pre-season game against Newcastle in South Korea in August.

Former Tottenham scout Brian King predicted that Tottenham could earn more than 1 million pounds (about 1.8 billion won) just with a friendly match in Korea.
King said, `Many of the reports about Son Heung-min are hasty judgments. He has never publicly expressed his intention to transfer. If there is a contract clause that requires you to compete in the Asian Tour, it must be followedThe match against Newcastle in Korea will receive a lot of attention because of Son Heung-min. The audience will also come to see Son Heung-min."
There are countless rumors of transfers, but Son Heung-min's decision is likely to lean toward Tottenham. It is also not easy for the club to make a decision to sell the team's definite legend prematurely.
Son Heung-min has been consistent since joining Tottenham in 2015. Throughout all competitions, he played in 454 games, scoring 173 goals and 101 assists. As a captain, he also contributed decisively to winning the UEFA Europa League in the 2024-2025 season.
