A seductive touch toward Son Heung-min appeared. Son Heung-min may also be in trouble because it is a proposal from a European big club, not Saudi Arabia, which has been courting so far. Spain's Todo Pichahes shed light on Atletico's interest in Son Heung-min, saying on the 12th (Korea time) that Son Heung-min was included in Atletico Madrid's recruitment goal. Pichahes said 'Atletico are one of the teams with the most moves in the transfer market this summer. Led the league in terms of investment. Julián Álvarez joined as a major player, and he was called to lead Atletico's future. However, the team's leadership continues to make efforts and intends to continue the line for the reorganization of the team. Several names were mentioned, and one of the players who will gain the most strength is Son Heung-min.

A seductive touch has appeared for Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min may also be in trouble because it is a proposal from a European big club, not Saudi Arabia, which has been courting so far.
Spain's Todo Pichahes shed light on Atletico's interest in Son Heung-min, saying on the 12th (Korea time) that Son Heung-min was included in Atletico Madrid's recruitment goal.
Pichahes said 'Atletico are one of the teams with the most moves in the transfer market this summer. Led the league in terms of investment.

However, the team's leadership continues to make efforts and intends to continue the line for the reorganization of the team. Several names were mentioned, and one of the players who will gain the most strength is Son Heung-min.
Atletico have tried to improve their squad this summer by recruiting a variety of players, including Álvarez, Conor Gallagher, LeVain Renormand and Aleksander Sørlotte. But Atletico were not satisfied. It seems that Son Heung-min is set to be recruited in the summer transfer market next season.

Pichahes said, `Son Heung-min is 32 years old, but he is still a top-performing player, and this may be the best opportunity when his contract expires. Son Heung-min has yet to confirm a contract extension with Tottenham, and although he is playing an important role at Tottenham, his future is yet to be determined. According to some rumors, he has also received Saudi attention, but the player appears to want to stay in Europe. Atletico have already contacted Son Heung-min, saying, 'The contact between Atletico and the player has already been made, but it has been made.'"
Son Heung-min has no choice but to receive attention from other teams due to the stagnation of his contract renewal. Son Heung-min, whose contract with Tottenham expires in the summer of 2025, has yet to announce any specific renewal progress. Atletico seem to be aiming for this opportunity.
If Son Heung-min joins Atletico, he is expected to add weight to the offense on behalf of Antoine Griezmann. Pichahes said, `If Son Heung-min joins, Griezmann's transfer, which was agonizing over a transfer to the U.S., may be completed. Griezmann said he has never hidden his desire to end his career, so he has to watch his choices.

Son Heung-min's recent transfer to Saudi Arabia has also been mentioned as a possibility of leaving Tottenham. England's Hotspur HQ said 'Saudi is still considering recruiting Son Heung-min next summer. Son Heung-min is one of five high-profile players on the recruitment list for Saudi clubs, who have said they want to improve their recruitment. The Saudis are looking to sign Son for free, but Tottenham have the option to extend Son's contract until 2026. 'When Son Heung-min turns 33 next summer, Tottenham will have to make a decision if a great offer is made to one of Saudi Al-Hilal, Al-Nasr, Al-Itihad and Al-Ahli.'
Then 'However, even then, sales are bound to be crazy. Even though Son Heung-min is in his 30s, he cannot put a price on his love and leadership for the club and fans. His grades are consistent. He scored 17 goals last season and two goals in three games this season. Son Heung-min seems to be a player whose main motive is not money. All the more so considering the amount he has earned over 14 years. But the unprecedented tax-free benefits and living closer to his country could tempt him,' he said, explaining that the contract benefits and the size of the money offered by Saudi Arabia were so sincere as to sway Son Heung-min.
However, Son Heung-min has consistently reacted negatively to the Saudi transfer. He also said he would remain at Tottenham and dedicate himself to the team. However, Atletico's proposal may be different. Atletico's proposal, a prestigious La Liga team and strong team, can be an attractive proposal for Son Heung-min, who has a strong desire for a trophy, so if Atletico's interest continues, it will be necessary to keep an eye on it.

Meanwhile, this is not the first time that Son Heung-min's transfer to La Liga has been discussed. The possibility of a transfer to Real Madrid has also emerged in 2022 and September last year.
In October 2022, the news that Carlo Ancelotti was watching Son Heung-min in Sport 1, Germany, was mentioned once again, and the possibility of a transfer to Real was also mentioned in September 2023. Spanish media reported that Son Heung-min is one of the names that Real is paying attention to strengthening the squad. He became a true icon of Tottenham. Son Heung-min's versatility on the field made him Real's favorite player to strengthen the squad in the transfer market in the future. Real had been keeping a close eye on Son's move for a while and expressed interest in signing him, making the club's fans look forward to it.
It will be a considerable investment, but Chairman Florentino Perez is willing to give the green light to the recruitment. Experienced and talented Son Heung-min can add a new light among Real's stars. The details are still largely rumoured, but the possibility of him joining Real could be ruled out. "His presence will be a real event for the team and a quality addition to it. If Son Heung-min's transfer is completed, it can be a great help to Real."
At that time, Jude Bellingham played an aggressive role well in Real, but other players in offensive resources such as Vinicius Junior, Hodrigo and Hosselu were sluggish and lacked players to add quality to the striker's position. However, with Kylian Mbappe joining this summer, Real have no reason to consider recruiting Son Heung-min.
Rumors of a transfer emerged once again as the contract renewal situation between Son Heung-min and Tottenham stagnated. If Tottenham is not convinced, Son Heung-min is also expected to have no choice but to think about various options.
