Tottenham Hotspur attacker Son Heung-min is reportedly a target for Saudi Pro League clubs for the 2025 summer transfer window.
Son Heung-min will be out of contract at Tottenham in 2025, and Saudi Pro League clubs are looking to sign him on a free transfer, as per Fichajes. The 32-year-old has been outstanding in his nine seasons with the North London club, and he has played over 400 games for them.
He was quite effective for them last season, and the South Korean international carried their attack in the absence of Harry Kane. Son scored 17 goals and picked up 10 assists along the way. He is an indispensable asset for Tottenham, and losing him would be a major blow for them. Tottenham are already lacking in depth in their squad, and they cannot afford to lose one of their best players.
Although Tottenham have signed Dominic Solanke for a sizeable amount of money, the former Bournemouth striker will need support in the final third. Son is the only other reliable goalscorer at the club, and Tottenham must do everything in the power to keep him at the club. It remains to be seen whether the North London club offer him a new contract in the next few weeks.
The 32-year-old is operating at a world-class level, and there is no reason why Tottenham should look to get rid of him any time soon. The player will also want to compete in the Premier League at this stage of his career. A move to Saudi Arabia or the MLS would be better suited further down the line.
Son would be a quality addition
Saudi Pro League clubs are looking at a number of top quality Premier League players, and they believe that signing these players will enhance the quality of their league and bring in more global appeal. Someone like Son could make a huge difference, especially in the Asian market.
It will be interesting to see if the Saudi clubs come forward with an official proposal for the South Korean international attacker in the coming months. They can offer him lucrative wages, and it is fair to assume that Spurs simply cannot match up to them financially.
