Son Heung-min to STAY at Tottenham despite interest from MLS side LAFC

There is an offer for the South Korean forward from LAFC.

After Tottenham Hotspur’s UEFA Europa League triumph, there has been multiple rumours of Son Heung-min making a move away from the Spurs. The South Korean forward is now 32 years old and there is a slight chance that he might get away from the high-paced English Premier League.

Son Heung-min is regarded as one of the top Asian footballers. This is said because of his top performances for Tottenham Hotspur and the South Korea national football team. He is also the captain of both his club and country football teams.

Spurs took down the Premier League giants Manchester United in the UEFA Europa League 2024-25 final to lift their first major trophy in 17 years. It was also the first major title for Son Heung-min, who joined Tottenham in 2015.

The club has already sacked Ange Postecoglou, their Europa League-winning manager, because of lacklustre performances in the domestic tournament. Thomas Frank has been appointed as the new head coach and it will be interesting to see whether he is going to keep Son in his playing squad or not.

Will Son Heung-min stay at Tottenham Hotspur?

As per Football Asian, the South Korean forward has decided to play for the Premier League club for the upcoming 2025-26 campaign. Son Heung-min will be looking to achieve Champions League glory with Tottenham.

Major League Soccer side, Los Angeles FC (LAFC), have also offered a deal to the South Korean forward. They have recently bid farewell to Oliver Giroud and have a vacant place for an experienced forward in their squad.

But as per some reports, Son Heung-min is likely to trigger the one-year extension in his current contract and remain a part of Tottenham Hotspur until the summer of 2026. He is most likely to be a part of the South Korea squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and is hence looking to compete at the highest level.

Even though he was not in his best form during the 2024-25 season, the South Korean forward struggled with his performances. But with his experience, he is surely going to play an important role for his teams in the final third.
