Whether Son Heung-min (32) and Tottenham Hotspur will be accompanied for a long time is still uncertain. Tottenham ended up simply extending its contract as if it were concerned about Son's deteriorating skills.

"He didn't get the contract he wanted from Tottenham. Tottenham accepted the option to extend his contract. However, he wanted a different outcome. He is not entirely satisfied," the British media Spurs Web reported on Wednesday.

Since last September, Tottenham in the UK has expected to sign a contract extension with Son Heung-min. "The Standard" and others announced that Tottenham added a one-year extension option when Son Heung-min renewed his contract three years ago. According to multiple media outlets including "Football London," Tottenham is known to be able to trigger the condition without the player's consent.

Tottenham, which had been dragging its feet, didn't announce the signing of Son's contract extension until the January transfer window opened. "I'm happy to announce the extension of Son's contract," Tottenham said on its official website. "My contract with Son is valid until summer 2026," adding, "He became a world-class star after joining Tottenham in August 2015. He ranked 11th (431 matches) in the team's history and recorded the fourth highest number of goals scored (169 goals) in the club's history." 메이저놀이터

"I am grateful for both my time with Tottenham and my extended contract. The captain feels a lot of responsibility. I always feel that I am trying to improve," Son said. "After a hard time comes, a good time always comes."

ESPN, a sports media outlet, pointed out the club's unilateral attitude toward Tottenham's contract extension process. "Tottenham increased its contract with Son Heung-min and did not have any discussions with the player," the media said. "Spurs simply exercised the club's option to extend the contract. We eliminated the possibility of Son Heung-min's transfer in the near future, but the player was expecting to sign a long-term contract."

"It is not surprising that Tottenham confirmed Son's contract extension," Spurs Web said. "Tottenham has protected the club's assets. However, Tottenham's captaincy remains sluggish. The long-term future remains uncertain."

The media then revealed, "With Tottenham's decision, speculation about Son Heung-min's near future has ended, but Son Heung-min wanted a different result. According to the long-time Tottenham player and his aides, Son Heung-min wanted to renew his contract for a long time."

Some saw Tottenham's decision as a transfer market strategy. "Some people, including former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan, are questioning whether Son will stay at Tottenham after the end of this season," the Football Insider said. "Tottenham's contract extension may be intended to secure Son's transfer fee in the winter or summer transfer market." Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy is known for being a football fanatic. When Harry Kane (31) left with only one year of his contract, he pocketed a hefty transfer fee.
