Son Heung-min is likely to leave Tottenham this summer. |
According to Football Asian , Son Heung-min did not even object to the decision to fire coach Postecoglou. He was not too concerned about the fate of the Australian coach. In fact, under Postecoglou, "Sonny's" role at the club decreased in the second half of the 2024/25 season.
Son Heung-min was benched for important matches many times last season, and in fact, he began to have conflicts with Postecoglou's tactics. Sources from the Korean press even said that if the Australian strategist continues to coach Spurs, Son may ask to leave this summer.
However, after coach Postecoglou left the club, Son Heung-min still refused the offer of a 2-year contract extension with Tottenham Hotspur. This stemmed from the fact that coach Thomas Frank seemed to not appreciate Son Heung-min.
The new Tottenham manager has not had any talks with the South Korean striker since signing a contract with the "Rooster". Son also refused the club's offer to reduce his salary. Son Heung-min's future at Tottenham Hotspur has been a topic of interest during this summer's transfer window, especially with only 12 months left on his contract.
Given the current situation, the possibility of the Tottenham captain leaving the team this summer is very high. However, The Athletic revealed that any decision regarding the South Korean striker's departure will be delayed until after Spurs' Asian tour.
Tottenham have scheduled two major friendlies in the region, including a big match against Arsenal on July 31 in Hong Kong (China) and a clash with Newcastle in Seoul (South Korea) on August 3.
Son Heung-min is the focus of this tour, as local fans have high expectations for his presence. And selling "Sonny" before the Asian tour could force Tottenham to pay compensation to their partners.
