“BREAKING NEWS; Arabia clubs express ‘interest’ in £41.7m deal for Tottenham star with ‘lack of leadership’
Tottenham could face interest in one of their key players this summer. It has been a challenging season for Spurs, who remain stuck in the lower half of the table following a disappointing start to the campaign.
Injuries have significantly impacted their performance, and manager Ange Postecoglou has struggled to find effective solutions, putting him under considerable pressure.
However, with injuries starting to clear up, there has been some improvement in recent weeks, including a victory over Manchester United last weekend.
Tottenham made some additions during the winter transfer window, signing Kevin Danso, Antonin Kinsky, and Mathys Tel, but it’s already clear that more reinforcements are needed in the summer, particularly in terms of squad depth.
Player departures are also a possibility, with one major player, Son Heung-min, reportedly drawing interest.
Despite not having his best season, the 32-year-old has still scored 10 goals and provided eight assists, maintaining his status as a top-quality player.
According to CaughtOffside, Saudi Pro League clubs are showing interest, with both Al Ittihad and Al Hilal reportedly willing to offer up to £41.7 million for a potential transfer. Tottenham may consider this offer, particularly given Son’s age.
Regardless, a decision must be made, as Son’s contract expires in the summer of 2026. This summer, Spurs will need to choose between cashing in on him or offering him a new deal.
Son’s captaincy has also come under scrutiny. Former Spurs midfielder Jamie O’Hara criticized Son, suggesting he is not fit to lead the team.
Speaking to Grosvenor Sport, O’Hara said, “Looking at Tottenham’s recent games against Liverpool and Aston Villa in the cup, this was the moment to show they could compete.
Unfortunately, they’ve shown the opposite—no fight, no heart, no desire, and definitely no leadership.
“For me, that lack of leadership starts with the manager and the captain. I hate to say it, but Son Heung-Min is no longer the right captain for this team.
He’s an excellent player and has been a great servant to the club, but when it comes to stepping up in tough moments, he’s not the one.
A captain should be someone who can lead from the front, take charge, and pull the team out of difficult situations. Son isn’t that leader. It’s time for a change in captaincy.”
