Tottenham Plans Son Heung-min Transfer After Asia Tour

Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min, who recently helped the club win their first trophy in 17 years, faces an uncertain future as he enters the final year of his contract. Despite strong interest from Saudi Arabian and other Middle Eastern clubs, Tottenham plans to delay any transfer until after their lucrative pre-season tour in Asia, which includes friendlies against Arsenal in Hong Kong and Newcastle in Seoul. Son's presence is considered vital for the commercial success of the tour, especially given his status as a revered figure in South Korea. New head coach Thomas Frank is exploring additional attacking options, having signed Mathys Tel and pursued other forwards, which adds to the speculation around Son's future. While some reports suggest Son remains open to staying and working under Frank, Tottenham have not received any formal offers yet, and any transfer would require a substantially high bid to proceed before the tour. The situation is expected to remain unresolved until the latter stages of the transfer window, with contractual obligations potentially requiring Son to feature in the friendly against Newcastle in Seoul.
