No Harry Kane repeat! Spurs to trigger captain Son Heung-min's contract option, tying him to club until 2026

The South Korea star's contract will expire in the summer of 2025 but The Telegraph reports the London side have a clause which allows them to extend his deal by a further year and they plan on activating it.

The decision will see them avoid another summer of uncertainty and leave them in danger of losing their captain next year. Spurs' summer window was dominated by uncertainty surrounding Kane, who opted to leave to join Bayern Munich. Had the Premier League side rejected Bayern's offer and forced Kane to stay, they would have lost him in a free transfer when his contract expired at the end of the season.

Son is already Spurs' top scorer this season, having scored three goals in just five Premier League appearances. The 31-year-old took over as captain this season after the departure of previous skipper Kane.

Son will attempt to lead his team to victory on Sunday when they take on Arsenal in the first north London derby of the season.
