Along with the possibility of Son Heung-min's free-agent transfer, interest from big clubs has been added. It is Serie A's prestigious AC Milan.

This is not the first time Son Heung-min has been rumored to be transferred. Recently, Fenerbahce and Manchester United have also expressed their interest. Italy's `Gazeta Delo Sport' reportedly wants Son Heung-min, João Felix, and Nikolo Zalevski on the 31st. Recruitment targets may also want Mourinho's love call. Son Heung-min has never won a match at Tottenham. If Mourinho, who was with Tottenham from 2019 to 2021, calls him, he can dream of winning after transfer. Mourinho also said Son Heung-min can demonstrate his decisive power in Fenerbahce.

He has recorded a lot of playing time, scoring 29 goals and 25 assists in 70 games. This is not the first time that the possibility of a reunion between Mourinho and Son Heung-min has been mentioned. In June 2024, some media outlets, including Turkiye's then-Takvim, announced that current chairman Ali Kochi appointed world-renowned coach Jose Mourinho ahead of the election of Fenerbahce chairman, and Aziz Icicle was also preparing to fight back as his rival. Icicle is reportedly working in this direction with plans to announce several very big transfers by the election.
There is still a possibility of transferring to a big club. The United District of England said, "'Manchester United can benefit from Son's important decision' and that 'Manchester United can benefit from this if Son makes an important decision not to decide on a contract. Accordingly, Son Heung-min can be brought in for free. Son Heung-min is heading into the final period of his career, but he is still the right player for the Hoobeng Amorim's system in the short term,' he said, referring to Manchester United's interest. In addition, major teams from the five major European leagues have been listed on the teams that Son Heung-min has been involved in since last summer, including Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain. This is where you can guess Son Heung-min's skills and status.

Britain's Tottenham Hotspur News also reported on the 25th that `Son Heung-min is dissatisfied with Tottenham's absurd progress on the contract,' adding `Son Heung-min wants to stay with the team until his late 30s, but an agreement on a new contract has not yet been reached. The contract expires at the end of this season, but the club has a one-year extension option. Options have not yet been announced. Son Heung-min is likely unhappy with the way his contract situation is handled. He is the most important player of the club. However, these parts were not reflected in the way they were treated for the future. This may explain why Son Heung-min is not showing his best performance.
Brian King, a former Tottenham scout, said "This issue should have ended three or four months ago. Son Heung-min is a player who has dedicated his football career to Tottenham. No player has been more committed since he was recruited. It is also questionable whether his mind is 100% with Tottenham now. I'm not sure if Son Heung-min is happy."
Britain's The Times also wants Son to stay with the team until he is in his late 30s, but an agreement on a new contract has not yet been reached. As things stand now, Son Heung-min will become an FA at the end of the season. Son Heung-min is well placed to receive an attractive offer in Europe. It pointed out that profitable transactions will also be possible in the future.

There was even a news that Son Heung-min was under pressure from the club to renew his contract after the news of a one-year extension option was recently triggered. England's Give Me Sports also quoted Fabrizio Romano, an expert in the European soccer transfer market, on the 23rd, saying that Tottenham Hotspur is expected to activate the option of extending Son's contract period until 2026. Tottenham could send Son to another team for a transfer fee next summer if he does not agree to renew his contract, reports said.
Along with the recent slump, interest in renewing contracts and transferring was bound to increase. Son Heung-min has been silent without scoring in his last three games and missed a penalty against Wolverhampton just before, failing to lead his team to victory. After the match, England's Express also gave a low of five points and 'Will his days end in the EPL? The pace dropped, and the poor game intensified due to the missed penalty kick.
Son Heung-min has emerged as a candidate for Barcelona's recruitment again. In addition, several big clubs are watching Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min is expected to continue to be the main character of the transfer rumor until a decision is made on the renewal and transfer.
