On the 13th (Korea time), reporter Alesdare Gold, who is familiar with Tottenham's news, commented on Son Heung-min's future through 'Football London'. He said 'It has been confirmed that he will participate in the Korean tour under the recent contract, but I wonder if he has had an interview with manager Thomas Frank. The longer we talk about renewing the contract or staying, the closer we feel the possibility of a transfer, what do you think?I was asked '.
Gold said 'Son Heung-min joined Tottenham only on Friday, delaying his departure due to a pre-agreed family commitment. On the first day, he took various tests, including physical strength and blood tests. After that, he must have played Thomas Frank's 1km test run, which made the players difficult, and added, "'If you look at this trend, you might think it's too early for Frank and Son Heung-min to talk about their future.'"
"From Frank's point of view, he will try to check his physical condition and performance with his own eyes before deciding on his future course of performance," he said. "Personally, I think the final decision should be up to Son Heung-min." He played for Tottenham for 10 years and showed amazing dedication. If Son Heung-min wants to fill the rest of his contract, he deserves it. If you want to transfer, you should respect that option and examine it in detail.
Finally, Gold should look into whether there is a contractual obligation clause for Son Heung-min to participate in the Korean tour. If Son Heung-min transfers before the tour, there could be financial disadvantages 'Frank's first press conference on Friday. At that time, I will be able to explain it more clearly.

Now the focus of attention is on Son Heung-min's future. Son Heung-min is at a crossroads. Son Heung-min finally escaped from the military in the 2024-2025 season. I succeeded in winning my dream. lifted the Europa League trophy. Son Heung-min won a major for the first time in his career. Son Heung-min, who led Tottenham to its first win in 17 years and the first European stage win in 41 years, made his position clear as a living legend for Tottenham in name and reality. Unlike Harry Kane, Gareth Bale, and Luka Modric, who left for the championship, Son Heung-min remained at Tottenham until the end.
Son Heung-min has achieved many honors, including becoming the first Asian top scorer in the English Premier League.

As injuries overlapped, voices of concern about 'Aging Curve' poured out. In a cool way, coach Enze Postecoglou's tactical reasons are great, but it is also true that he does not show as much skills as he did in his heyday. Tottenham hesitated to renew the contract with Son Heung-min. Contrary to the initial expectation that it would easily lead to a long-term renewal, the company decided to accompany only after a long time. That also stopped short of exercising the extension option. Son Heung-min has decided to stay at Tottenham until the summer of 2026.
Son Heung-min's position in Tottenham, which was Untouchable, has also changed. Public opinion continued that Tottenham, which ranked 17th last season, should now make a new edition, and there were voices calling for Son Heung-min to be sorted out. Tottenham are speeding up changes, replacing manager Enze Postecoglou and bringing in Thomas Frank. After completely recruiting Matistel on the left wing, Son Heung-min's main position, he also brought Mohamed Kudus. Kudus can play not only the right winger, but also the left wing, the central attacking midfielder, etc. Kudu, who left Ajax for West Ham in 2022, is a special wing with 65 appearances in the English Premier League and 13 goals and 12 assists.

Son Heung-min's future seems to be narrowing his destination to Saudi Arabia or Remain. The U.S. Major League Soccer trip, which had been discussed until recently, went under the surface. The Mirror'Son Heung-min seriously considered going to the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS), but eventually decided to reject LAFC's offer. "'The Sun' is also expected to fail to recruit Son Heung-min ' LA FC is expected to fail to recruit Son Heung-min ' At this stage, Son Heung-min's transfer to the U.S. is expected to be difficult. LA FC will have to wait until this winter's transfer market or next summer to take Son Heung-min.
Instead, they mentioned going to Saudi Arabia again. On Tuesday, Son Heung-min's team of the famous betting company Sky Bet will be in the Saudi league next season, setting the dividend rate at a whopping 4/9. In terms of probability, it reached 69.2% and about 70%. Gamblers are the most sensitive and accurate on every issue in the UK, where betting is free. It has more information than a media company. It is worth watching that such a betting company predicted Son Heung-min's next destination to Saudi Arabia, which is also a 70% chance.

Son Heung-min's connection to Saudi Arabia is not yesterday or today. Saudi Arabia, which is pouring astronomical money, is bent on recruiting top stars, and of course, Son Heung-min is the No. 1 recruitment target. Under the Asian Champions League elite rules, the value of Asian players is bound to be great.
The British public broadcaster 『BBC" and the influential magazine 『The Times" also dealt with Son Heung-min's possibility of going to Saudi Arabia and evaluated it as 『a strategy to maximize brand value and marketing effects』. Saudi Arabia's national wealth is currently actively pursuing a strategy to expand its league's global broadcasting rights and foster the sports and tourism industry, and the UK's local analysis is that Saudi Arabia is trying to complete the project through Son Heung-min, who has the best brand in Asia.
Saudi wanted Son Heung-min from the summer of 2023. RT Hard sent a strong courtship. With a transfer fee of 60 million euros, an annual salary of 30 million euros, and a four-year contract, the total amount reached 120 million euros. However, Son Heung-min declined, quoting Ki Sung-yueng, who said, `The South Korean captain does not go to China.'
Since then, Saudi courts have intensified. Along with Al Nasr, where Cristiano Ronaldo is playing, as well as 'Saudi's strongest' Al Hilal and RT Hard are shaking Son Heung-min with oil dollars. It's an irresistible temptation, as we're in the twilight of our career.

First of all, according to the British TeamTalk, multiple Saudi clubs have reportedly offered Son an astronomical condition of 30 million euros (about 48.2 billion won) per year and 90 million euros (about 144.6 billion won) for three years. Son Heung-min is reportedly the best Asian player. It will make one of the world's largest amounts of money.
The possibility of staying is also being discussed. John Wenham, the operator of Tottenham's largest community 'LilyWhite Rose' and familiar with the club's internal news, said "If Son Heung-min stays, he is likely to be used as a rotation resource." Then "There are both positive and negative aspects of holding onto Son Heung-min."He's a player with a lot of experience, and he can still contribute to the team. But now we have to accept that we can't start every game like we used to."
Wehem added "Tottenham has signed Matistel, and Mikey Moore is also growing rapidly. If he catches Christian Romero, he is better suited as captain. Therefore, he will need careful dialogue with Son Heung-min, but Son Heung-min is still an amazing player. A player who comes off the bench and has the influence to change the flow of the game.

In the end, Son's future is expected to be decided at a meeting with coach Frank. 'Talk Sports' means 'Son Heung-min and Tottenham respect each other. Son Heung-min has a lot of power to control the situation. "This includes asking for a contract renewal or checking how much playing time can be secured under Frank," he said. Earlier in the day, the British newspaper Sky Sports reported that Tottenham decided to completely leave Son Heung-min's transfer to the player himself. Football London also said that `Tottenham is more likely to leave it up to Son Heung-min, who has devoted himself for 10 years, rather than pushing his back to earn the last transfer fee.'
According to Spurs Web, it seems that Frank has already conveyed his thoughts to the club about Son's future. He welcomed Son Heung-min's stay, but he said Son Heung-min will have to accept a somewhat limited role as a major rebuild is scheduled for next season. Even if Son decides to leave, there is no one to blame him. He said he would be confident that he would be able to handle Tottenham's absence as well. In the end, it is up to Son Hong-min's choice. On Friday, attention is being paid to Frank's mouth.
