Interesting detail emerges on Son Heung-min's future as Tottenham make decision on captain

Son has just 12 months left on his existing contract at Spurs and could be offloaded this summer, according to The Times. Tottenham are "willing" to sell their skipper but are "commercially contracted" to play Son during pre-season in a friendly against Newcastle at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on August 3. Any sale therefore must wait until the fixture has been played.

Tottenham are minded to sell Son as he turns 33 in July and will be available to leave on a free transfer next summer if he does continue until then. Saudi Pro League clubs and Turkish side Fenerbahce, now managed by former Spurs boss Jose Mourinho, have all been linked with a move for Son if he does move on.

Son scored seven goals last season for Spurs in the Premier League. It's the first time he has failed to reach double figures in the English top flight since his first campaign with the club in 2015-16.

Son will undoubtedly be given a huge reception when he heads to South Korea as he remains a hero in his homeland. Tottenham are due to play Arsenal and Newcastle in Asia in pre-season before a game against Bayern at the Allianz Arena. The fixtures could be Son's last in Spurs colours
