Until recently, the invocation of a one-year extension option seemed to be the trend. Initially, Tottenham is expected to offer Son Heung-min a long-term renewal this summer. There have been constant talks about renewing contracts around Christmas last year. As Son Heung-min also loves Tottenham, the contract is expected to be renewed without difficulty. But the tide has changed. The Athletic said, `Son Heung-min is still an integral part of the team. Tottenham will invoke the option of a one-year extension to keep him tied to the club until 2026' Another British media outlet, 90min 'Tottenham will enter the final year of Son's contract. It said it would invoke an option to extend this to 2026'

The British Football Insider also reported on the 25th (Korea time) that `Tottenham will activate Son Heung-min's option to extend his contract.' Citing an interview with former Tottenham defender Alan Hutton, Football Insider said Son Heung-min's one-year option is the cornerstone for future sales. Football Insider said Tottenham will be guaranteed to receive a large transfer fee to Son Heung-min by invoking the contract extension clause. Hutton appeared to have put a clause in the contract to protect him, according to Football Insider. They will invoke the option, and get two seasons. And if anyone tries to recruit Son during that period, Tottenham will be able to receive an amount that would recognize Son's value. Son Heung-min said, "I still have a lot to give as a striker or winger."



Spursweb had a completely different view. Spurs Web said on the 27th that Tottenham is set to sign Son Heung-min's extension contract. Son Heung-min's one-year contract extension has strategic implications. This is to lay the groundwork for long-term renewal after securing an additional year. Considering Son Heung-min's influence and position at Tottenham, it is essential to tie him up with a new contract,' he said. Spursweb quoted Hutton's argument and noted that Hutton was Son's versatility. In addition to extending the contract, negotiations on renewing the contract for three to four years are expected before the new season (2024-2025 season) begins. The move is aimed at defending Tottenham's most valuable player in the team.

Son Heung-min is receiving love calls from other teams this winter. The most active club was Fenerbahce, where Jose Mourinho was appointed. Mourinho, who suffered a shock dismissal at AS Roma, has saved a new team in five months. It was Fenerbahce, a prestigious city in Turkiye. The British press 'Football365' Son Heung-min is one of the five who can join Jose Mourinho in Fenerbahce, reports British media 'Football365' Football 365 recommended five players, including Son Heung-min, Armando Broja (Chelsea), Victor Lindelof (Manchester United), Romelu Lukaku (Chelsea), and Willian (Fulham).



Football365 said, `Mourinho was disappointed at Tottenham, but he got the best two-top of Son Heung-min and Harry Kane. Son Heung-min is the Tottenham player who played the most time under Mourinho. He scored 29 goals and 25 assists in 70 matches under Mourinho. Son Heung-min also scored double-digit goals and helped this season (17 goals and 10 assists)." Son Heung-min's all-round play, however, is declining. Son Heung-min is in the same situation as Kane last year. Son Heung-min pointed out that he is in the last year of his contract.

As things turned out, Chairman Daniel Levy stepped up. Turkiye media Photomak introduced what Chairman Levi mentioned about Son Heung-min's transfer.

There has been constant news that several clubs, including Saudi Arabia and Paris Saint-Germain, want Son Heung-min.

Saudi's RT Hard showed interest in Son Heung-min in June last year. The transfer fee alone reached $65 million. The annual salary was also enormous. For Son Heung-min, who is nearing the end of his career, it was news that would tempt his ears. But I refused.

"I love soccer, money is important, but playing in the Premier League is a dream." "(Ki) Sung-yong also said, "In the past, Korean captains do not go to China." Money doesn't matter to me right now,' he said, dismissing the trip to Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is still known to be interested in Son Heung-min.

Finally, he was the captain under coach Enze Postecoglou, who adopted an active and ball-possessing style, and Tottenham rose from eighth to fifth last season even though Harry Kane left.

Son Heung-min has risen to the ranks of EPL legends in name and reality. Shouldered Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard, Eric Cantona, Wayne Rooney and Mohamed Salah. "Only six players, including Son Heung-min, have scored 10 goals and 10 assists on the EPL stage more than three times," said Squaka, a statistics company. "Sonny (Son Heung-min) is on the legendary list." Rooney had the most number of 10-10, followed by Cantona and Lampard with four. Drogba and Salah recorded a total of three times.

It was a season with more variables than ever. Australian coach Enze Postecoglou, who is said to have opened a successful era at Celtic, has taken the helm of Tottenham. On top of that, even Harry Kane, who scored more than 20 goals every season, left for Bayern Munich.

Son Heung-min was at the center of Tottenham, which opened a new era.

He scored 17 goals, far exceeding the expected 12 goals. Son Heung-min showed not only his scoring ability but also his soccer capability. Son Heung-min recorded two key passes per game this season, showing no less than a professional playmaker. There were 20 Big Chance productions alone.
