“No long-term renewal.” Attention is focused on Son Heung-min’s next destination… “PSG is watching for a long time.”

With news that Son Heung-min (32) has agreed to activate a one-year extension option rather than a long-term contract renewal with Tottenham, the possibility of his transfer is also coming out at the same time.

Team Talk, a British media outlet, said on the 16th (Korea Standard Time), “Tottenham is considering a one-year extension option, not an additional contract with Son Heung-min, and the 2025-2026 season could be his last season.”

At the same time, the media said, “If Tottenham fails to advance to the Champions League, the possibility of Son Heung-min moving to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has also been raised.”

Son moved to Tottenham from Bayer Leverkusen in 비아그라 in 2015, making 417 appearances. He has become a key player in his team with 165 goals and 89 assists. His performance was unstable in the beginning, but he has since shown steady growth to establish himself as a symbol of Tottenham. In particular, he scored 23 goals in the 2021-2022 season, becoming the first Asian player to become the top scorer in the Premier League.

Son has repeatedly shown his loyalty to Tottenham. With the 2021 League Cup Final to come, he signed a long-term contract despite the turmoil caused by the club’s managerial change. He even received the captain’s armband ahead of the 2023-2024 season, and has been the team’s most prolific scorer and assistant record holder throughout the season. He has scored 17 goals and 10 assists in the league.

Recently, however, there have been reports that Son and Tottenham will not have long time together. Fabrizio Romano, an expert on the European soccer transfer market, said, “Tottenham is discussing with Son about an option to extend the contract for one year, and he is aware of this. The current contract expires in June 2025, but when the option to extend the contract is activated, the contract period will be extended until June 2026. The club is going through an official process.”

With the possibility of a long-term contract with Tottenham falling, Son Heung-min has once again been at the center of rumors of a transfer. Unexpectedly, it is connected to PSG.

Team Talk reported, “He has been receiving attention from Saudi Arabian clubs. In addition, PSG has been keeping an eye on him for a long time. If Tottenham fails to qualify for the Champions League, its chances of a move to PSG in the summer transfer window could increase.”

If Son heads to PSG, Son will be able to continue his bid to win in French Ligue 1 and European matches. He will also be able to play with Lee Kang-in (PSG), a junior member of the Korean national soccer team.
