  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Per the Telegraph, Son could be set to leave Spurs this summer as the club aim to reshape their squad following their Europa League triumph. The South Korea international signed a contract extension during the season, taking his deal up until next summer, which means that the club can demand a fee for him in this transfer window.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Son has been Spurs captain since 2023 and won his first senior trophy with the club last month as he lifted the Europa League. Manager Ange Postecoglou's future is also in doubt, and there may be an exit for Cristian Romero too, with Atletico Madrid interested. Losing their manager, captain, and vice-captain in one summer would potentially leave a rather large leadership void at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Son joined the club from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 for just £22 million ($30m). Since, he has gone on to make 454 appearances for the club, scoring 173 goals and registering 101 assists.
