Son admitted that he did not count on a contract extension with Tottenham this summer, but is glad to be able to spend a decade at the club.
A little about Son Heung-min
Son Heung-min to the Spurs from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 and has scored 71 Premier League goals for the club in nearly 200 appearances, including the opening goal of his 2021-22 campaign against Man City. The 29-year-old reached a particularly successful rapport with Harry Kane during his time in England and became a firm favorite with supporters.
Son doesn’t want to move to another location
When asked if he would like to spend a decade at the club, having recently signed a new deal until 2025, Son Heung-min replied that yes, if he could stay for another four years and football is never promised, so let’s see. So Son signed a contract because he didn’t want to move to another location. Son may have been here for 10 years or more than 10 years, you never know what will happen in the future, but he tries to stay focused every day, he tries to improve every day and every season. Son Heung-min thinks thinking is more important than testifying 10 years from now.
Son says he feels the club showed affection for him with his last offer – and he stressed that he felt he owed the club for the faith they showed in him. According to Son, he didn’t expect to deal with the contract so early because he had a couple of years left. They showed how much they loved him, he played here for six years, but they give him so much and he wanted to return something. Son is grateful to be here, it’s an honor to play for this club. Four more years, he thinks they can do great things.
