Son Heung-min (32) of Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League (EPL) is expected to once again reject a love call from a Saudi Arabian team with ‘oil money'.
British media ‘Football Insider’ said on the 27th (Korean time), “Son Heung-min will choose to renew his contract with Tottenham rather than transfer to Saudi Arabia. “Tottenham and Son Heung-min have already started negotiating a contract renewal,” the report said.
Son Heung-min, who has been playing for Tottenham since 2015, extended his contract with the team until June 2025 in July 2021.
The media said, “After Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) left, Son Heung-min has become a more important player at Tottenham and is even wearing the captain’s armband. “This season, Son Heung-min has 12 goals and 6 assists in 23 games,” he said, pointing out that there is no reason for Tottenham and Son Heung-min to end their partnership.
The Saudi league has recently been scooping up stars from major European leagues, including the EPL, thanks to the astronomical finances of the sovereign wealth fund.
Rumors abounded that Son Heung-min was also consistently receiving transfer offers from a number of Saudi clubs. However, so far, it seems likely that Son Heung-min will remain.
Son Heung-min, who received interest from some Saudi teams in last summer's transfer market, decided to stay, saying, “I still have a lot I want to achieve in the EPL.” 온라인섯다
