England's The Hard Task Force said on the 18th (Korea time) 'Son Heung-min wants to stay at Tottenham. However, there are speculations that come to mind,' the report said.
The Hard Taskl says Son will extend his contract with Tottenham by one year. Leading German reporter Florian Flettenberg also confirmed that Tottenham will exercise a one-year extension option and remain with the team until 2026. Son Heung-min is still a very useful asset for Tottenham, and can help them win trophies. Son Heung-min's winning experience, leadership, and mentality are invaluable to Tottenham. Tottenham cannot afford to lose Son Heung-min.
However, he predicted that Son Heung-min's future could change after this decision. The HardTackle added 'There have been rumors in recent months that Son Heung-min could move to Saudi Arabia, and it will be interesting to see if he will really head to Saudi Arabia after his contract expires. It could be the last chance to make a decent amount of money. It's not surprising because several top-level players have headed to Saudi Arabia in recent seasons,' he predicted.

Considering Son Heung-min's position, it was certainly a disappointing choice. Considering Son Heung-min's achievements and evaluations at Tottenham, it is also considered a legend that is included in the top 10 in the club's history. Son Heung-min has already exceeded 400 games in Tottenham's total, and is at the top of both the all-time scoring and help rankings.
In this situation, only the option of a one-year extension was triggered, and Son Heung-min was disappointed by Tottenham's decision, so the possibility of a Saudi transfer was ignited again.

So far, Son Heung-min has clearly expressed his negative view on the Saudi transfer. CBS Sports reporter Ben Jacobs said about Son's proposal last summer that he had been offered a total of more than 170 billion euros in annual salary, saying, `Son Heung-min was offered a contract with an annual salary of 30 million euros (about 43.3 billion won) every season for four years by the Saudi Arabian League RT Hard.' Son Heung-min reportedly refused and stayed at Tottenham.
Son Heung-min also said in a direct interview, `If I wanted to go to Saudi Arabia, I wouldn't be here. I like to play soccer. Money is important, but it is my dream to play in the Premier League. It's really interesting that a lot of people are going there. But the Premier League is still a dream for me, and I'm looking forward to this season."

The renewal of Son Heung-min and Tottenham's contracts has stagnated, and several possibilities continue to emerge. For Son Heung-min, who has devoted 10 years, the current time and treatment are expected to remain a great disappointment.
