Son Heung-min transfer update: Player is a ‘target for Saudi Arabian clubs’
Tottenham are expected to make some business in both their incomings and outgoings this summer, and their leading goalscorer and captain is one whose name has recently joined the list of potential transfers.
Tottenham’s captain has been in great form this season, leading the team with 14 goals in 24 league appearances (Transfermarkt)
He also recorded eight assists and increased his G/A to 22, also a team high
He is currently 31 years old, an age at which some players’ performances start to decline, but that hasn’t stopped other clubs from showing interest in his talent
The age factor has been linked to the Saudi Pro League, a competition that has attracted older talent in recent years, including players such as Cristiano Ronaldo (39), Karim Benzema (36) and N’Golo Edge (32)
It may even help increase the team’s interest
According to GIVEMESPORT, recent information from journalist Ben Jacobs has revealed that Son will be “targeted by the Saudi Arabian club and the decision will be up to him
” At this point, it is unclear how suitable an offer is from anyone
The striker’s contract currently runs until 2025 (Transfermarkt)
However, according to HITC, Tottenham are “intensifying contract negotiations” with the player and have already finalized plans to extend his contract
Additionally, Ben Jacobs previously told GIVEMESPORT that the South Korean soccer player is “100% committed to Spurs
” With that in mind, and given the club’s obvious interest, it seems unlikely that any deal will materialize in the near future
Tottenham have enjoyed the benefit of a world-class striker in Son Heung-min for many years now, in his eighth season at the club, with a total of 159 goals and 88 assists in all competitions (Transfermarkt )
A transfer seems unlikely given the respective stances of clubs and players on transfers, although it should be noted that many of Europe’s top clubs have been influenced by huge cash offers from Saudi Arabia
It is
