Son Heung-min is expected to be offered a huge contract if his contract with Tottenham expires.
Soccer statistics media outlet Transfer Markt introduced a list of key players who will be eligible for free agency after the 2024-2025 season on the 1st (Korea Standard Time).
After the 2024-2025 season, global players will be released as free agents, heating up the summer of 2025. There are many big-time players who will be released on free agency in the summer of 2025. Super superstars such as Kevin De Bruyne, Lionel Messi, Mohamed Salah, Alfonso David, Joshua Kimmich and Leroy Sane are eligible for free agency.
Another player in the spotlight is Son Heung-min, of course. Son Heung-min has the seventh highest ransom among players who will be released by free agency in 2025. The high market value means that it is highly attractive in the transfer market.
Tottenham has a clause that allows Son Heung-min to extend his contract for another year, and despite the possibility of invoking a one-year extension, Son Heung-min is already very hot about the transfer.
"Son Heung-min, Tottenham's historic player, could face the last chapter of his brilliant era," said Spain's Pizza Hess on the 23rd last month. One of the clubs that has shown interest in signing Son Heung-min is Atletico Madrid, which will cherish his arrival under favorable conditions. Son's quality and experience on the elite stage perfectly match the demands of Atletico coach Diego Simeone,' he said, adding that he wants to recruit Son from Atletico.
Around the same time, rumors of a transfer to Bayern Munich emerged. It started with the remarks of Harry Kane, his soul partner at Tottenham. Kane said he wanted to recruit Son Heung-min at the Bayern fan meeting ahead of Christmas.
Kane said, `Tottenham fans won't like this answer very much, but I'll pick Son Heung-min. My relationship with Son Heung-min is excellent. We had a good partnership at Tottenham, and we were good friends off the field as well. I think we can do pretty well together in the German Bundesliga."
Later, German media outlet AZ reported "Bayern's most prolific scorer Kane verbally told sporting director Max Eberle about his desired recruitment list. Son Heung-min, 32, has reached a considerable age as a soccer player. Nevertheless, Son will be interested in Bayern in many ways. Son Heung-min can be used in several positions in attack. As a scorer, as a helper, I impressed everyone. It is also considered a perfectly professional player."
Son Heung-min has also been linked to Manchester United. British Give Me Sports magazine believes Son Heung-min is a `workable goal' that could bring him to Old Trafford next year. There is a lot of talk around Manchester United. I believe there is a way to lure Son Heung-min to Manchester United at the end of this season."
In the new year of 2025, the reunion with his teacher Jose Mourinho is drawing keen attention. Italy's Gazeta "Mourinho's Fenerbahce is one of the most active clubs in the January transfer window and next summer. Tottenham star Son Heung-min is on the recruiting list."
The above media outlet said that Mourinho, who coached Son Heung-min from the 2019-2020 season to the 2020-2021 season, is well aware of how a player's ability can play a decisive role in Fenerbahce. He said, "I want to guarantee Son a championship." Mourinho will offer a tempting hand to Son, who will be thirsty for a championship.
If Tottenham does not trigger a one-year extension and fails to renew the contract with Son Heung-min, Son Heung-min will come to the market as a free agent. There is no reliable news yet, but rumors continue to emerge showing how hot Son Heung-min's popularity is in the transfer market.
If you come to the transfer market as a free agent, there are no transfer fees, so contract terms such as annual salary often improve. If there are many clubs aiming for players, competition may arise and huge contracts may be created. At the current trend, Son Heung-min seems to be the main character who will make a big free agent hit.
