It's a shock. It has been argued that Son Heung-min (Tottenham) should be sold as a captain.
British media The Bootroom said on the 12th (Korean time) 'If manager Thomas Frank leads Tottenham, he may have to sell some of the players. Frank should offer Son a transfer, he said.
Tottenham made a recent decision. He broke up with coach Enze Postecoglou. Coach Postecoglou led Tottenham to the top of the Europa League (UEL) in the 2024-2025 season. It gave Tottenham the trophy for the first time in 17 years. Tottenham's previous victory was in the 2007-2008 League Cup. In the case of the European match, it was the first time in 41 years since winning the UEFA Cup, the predecessor of the Europa League in the 1983-1984 season. However, Postecoglou was hampered by the English Premier League (EPL). Tottenham finished 17th in the EPL with 38 points (11 wins, 5 draws and 22 losses). It was the worst point and ranking in the club's history since the launch of the EPL. Tottenham replaced Postecoglou on the 7th. The club dismissed Postecoglou after a performance evaluation and in-depth review. The board unanimously concluded that changes were necessary. Winning the Europa League is one of the club's greatest moments, but it was impossible to make a decision devoted solely to winning. In the upcoming season, we should be able to compete for the top ranks in more moments through change. 'One of the most difficult decisions we have ever made...' it was officially announced.

Coach Frank Brentford is considered a strong candidate to replace him. The BBC recently reported that the negotiations between Tottenham and Brentford are progressing positively. Frank is under contract with Brentford until June 2027. Tottenham are said to have agreed with Brentford on the condition of paying £10 million, which is 'Buyout'. Coach Frank's coaching staff also decided to accompany him to Tottenham.
Attention is drawn to Son Heung-min's future. Son Heung-min is a legend of Tottenham. He wore Tottenham's jersey through the transfer window in the summer of 2015. He played for Tottenham for more than a decade and devoted himself. However, this season, he left a regret in his personal record due to injuries. He scored seven goals in 30 EPL games during the 2024-2025 season. He scored 11 goals and 12 assists in 46 official matches, including three goals in 10 Europa League matches. It is the first time that Son Heung-min scored a single-digit score in the EPL since the 2015-2016 season (4 goals), the first season of Tottenham's transfer. However, he smiled broadly as he won the Europa League trophy. Son Heung-min reached the top for the first time in 15 seasons since taking the European first team stage in the German Bundesliga in the 2010-2011 season.

The boot room said, `Son Heung-min is attracting attention from Saudi Arabia, Germany, Spain, Italy, etc. He is Tottenham's main player. However, most of last season showed a struggle to reach the level he had been doing throughout his career. Son Heung-min's performance was questioned. Nevertheless, he scored 11 goals and 12 assists in all tournaments. I proved it. However, some suggested that Son Heung-min may not fit Frank's system. Frank prefers fast wingers. However, Son lost his speed pace last season. Therefore, if Saudi Arabia makes an appropriate offer for Son, the two sides should strongly consider a friendly break-up in a decade.'
Meanwhile, Son Heung-min stopped talking about a transfer after the final Group B match against Kuwait in the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 10th. He "For now, the contract period remains. You have to wait. Like many of you, I am curious about my future. We have to wait and see what happens in the future. No matter where you are, you have to do your best and try your best. I'll do my best to prepare well.'
