Tottenham's future of Son Heung-min (32) is fluctuating.
Son Heung-min's most recent re-signing with Tottenham in the summer of 2015 was in July 2021. He signed a four-year contract. Son Heung-min's contract with Tottenham will end after this season.
However, Tottenham has a one-year extension option. If the option is invoked, Son will stay at Tottenham until 2026. However, the atmosphere was subtle.
Son Heung-min also recently "There's nothing else to say right now. "If I do what I can do for the rest of the season, do my best to help the team and do what the team needs for the team, it's the most important thing for me to show how I improve day by day, day by day, just as the future is always unpredictable," he said. "I told you before the season, but I really have a big idea to make it special, so I'm focusing on that and not paying attention to anything else."," he said, leaving a strange lingering impression.
Rumors of a transfer have also emerged. Rumors of transfer to big clubs such as Barcelona and Real Madrid in Spain and Manchester United in the English Premier League (EPL) have been raised. It has been argued that Turkiye's prestigious Galatasaray is also eyeing Son Heung-min. In the case of Barcelona, there was even a rumor that Son Heung-min made a counter-proposal.

However, a new argument that overturns this is drawing attention. Britain's `Spurs Web' reported on the 10th (Korea time) that `Son Heung-min's agent brought up the contract and transfer rumors.'
Spurs Web denied rumors that Son Heung-min's agent was transferred around Son Heung-min. It is not true that Son Heung-min makes a request to the Spanish club first or goes to the Turkiye League. I haven't finished talking with Tottenham, and I'm still negotiating with them. 'Tottenham wants to buy time in contract negotiations. Son Heung-min is expected to agree a long-term deal with Tottenham before the end of this season. It looks like he will sign up to a three-year contract while keeping his current salary as it is,' he claimed.
If it becomes a reality, Son Heung-min will stay at Tottenham until 2028. Son Heung-min will be 36 years old by 2028. 'It's practically a lifetime'
Naturally, attention is drawn to the reunion with Harry Kane (31, Bayern Munich). Kane, a former Tottenham youth player, was Tottenham 'One Club Man' from the 2022-2023 season. Last summer, the route changed. He moved to Germany's prestigious Bayern Munich club to realize his dream of winning the championship.

However, Kane's return to the EPL is always open. Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy made headlines last year when he disclosed that he had Kane's right to buy back. When asked about the possibility of returning to the EPL, Kane is also opening up the possibility with an answer of "Someday".
Kane still hasn't let go of his tie with Tottenham. On the 3rd of last month, communicating with fans through the 'Clitz Club'I spent a relaxing Sunday with my family and watched Tottenham win 4-1. The second half was good." Tottenham came from behind to win 4-1 in the 10th round of the EPL in the 2024-2025 season against Aston Villa.
Kane is under contract with Bayern Munich until 2027. If 'Sonke combination' is restarted, the milestone may also be extended. Son scored 47 goals with Kane. It is by far the number one offensive union in EPL history. You can also step on a 50-goal archway.
Kane is also aiming to score the most goals in his EPL career. He scored 213 goals to move beyond Wayne Rooney (208 goals) to second place. Above him is only Alan Shearer, who has scored 260 goals. A further 48 goals will open up a new chapter.

Son Heung-min is in his 10th season with Tottenham. There is no disagreement that 'Living Legend' is. He scored double digits for eight consecutive seasons from the 2016-2017 season to the last season. Since the launch of the EPL in 1992, only seven players have scored 10 or more goals for eight consecutive seasons.
In the 2021-2022 season, he scored 23 goals, becoming the first Asian player to become the top scorer in the EPL. He was 100% pure top scorer with no penalty kick points.
Last season, he joined Tottenham's third '10 (goal)-10 (help) club' for the first time in his career. Son Heung-min became the first Asian player to achieve the EPL '10-10' (11 goals-10 assists) in the 2019-2020 season. In the 2020-2021 season, he also scored 17 goals and 10 assists, and stepped on that position once again.
And he opened the door again with 17 goals and 10 assists last season. Only five players have joined the 10-10 club more than three times in the EPL, including Wayne Rooney, Erik Cantona, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba (retired) and Mohamed Salah (Liverpool).
Son Heung-min has 167 goals and 88 assists in 424 games. Staying at Tottenham is a realistic option. Son's future is still hot.
