Amid no news of the renewal of Son Heung-min and Tottenham, various transfer rumors related to Son Heung-min are drawing attention.

Spanish media outlet Todofichahes reported on Sunday that Son Heung-min was included in the list of players for Atletico Madrid AT Madrid. AT Madrid, which acquired Álvarez from the transfer window last summer, plans to continue its reshuffle of its squad. It said that there were several players that AT Madrid discussed recruiting Son and the player who received the most attention was Son Heung-min.

The media outlet said, "Son Heung-min is 32 years old, but he is still performing at the highest level. Son Heung-min is one of the players who has a chance to recruit him in the transfer market, ahead of the expiration of his contract. Son still has not signed a contract with Tottenham. Son is playing an important role in Tottenham, but his future has not been decided yet." He also added, "Son Heung-min is rumored to be a Saudi Arabian professional league club, but he seems to want to continue playing in Europe. In fact, there was contact between AT Madrid and Son's agent."

"Son Heung-min's joining could signal the transfer of Griezmann, who was rumored to be transferred to a Major League Soccer club. Griezmann is under contract with AT Madrid until 2026, but he has made no secret of his willingness to finish his career in the U.S.," Todofichahes said, referring to the possibility of AT Madrid reorganizing its offense along with recruiting Son Heung-min.

AT Madrid added Manchester City striker Alvarez during the transfer window last summer. AT Madrid, which won 11 Spanish Primera Liga titles, is aiming for the first Primera Liga title in four seasons since the last 2020-21 season. AT Madrid ranks third in the league with two wins and two draws eight points in the Primera Liga early this season.

Son Heung-min signed a contract with Tottenham in 2021 and is under contract until 2025. Tottenham has an option to extend Son's contract by one year, but there has been no news of the renewal.

Rumors of Son Heung-min signing a professional league club in Saudi Arabia have been steadily mentioned recently. British Hotspur HQ said on the 9th, "The Saudi Arabian club is trying to recruit Son Heung-min, whose contract with Tottenham expires in 2025, without a transfer fee, but Tottenham has the option to extend his contract with Son Heung-min by one year until 2026. It is hard to imagine Tottenham leaving the team without a transfer fee," but added, "When Son Heung-min turns 33 next summer, Tottenham will have to make a decision if a profitable offer comes from one of Al Hilal, Al Nasr, Al Itihad, and Al Ahli, which are owned by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund."

Hotspur HQ predicted that Son Heung-min will receive an offer from the Saudi Arabian club that is difficult to reject, saying, "Unprecedented tax-free benefits can attract Son Heung-min."

ESPN reported last year, "RETHARD is preparing to recruit Son Heung-min. RTHard offered an option along with 60 million euros 89.1 billion won to recruit Son," adding, "Cubs in Saudi Arabia are interested in recruiting Premier League players in the transfer market this summer. Son was offered an annual salary of 30 million euros 44.5 billion won along with a four-year contract."

Spanish media Pichahes said on the 6th, "The Saudi Arabian Professional League has five players who want to recruit in 2025," adding, "The Saudi Arabian Professional League continues to prove that it has no limit to its ambitions. The Saudi Arabian Professional League aims to recruit Son Heung-min, Dybala, The Bruyne, Salah and Van Dyke."

Regarding Son Heung-min's transfer to AT Madrid on the 12th, British media Court Offside said, "It is not yet known whether Son Heung-min will be able to stay at Tottenham next season. Son Heung-min, who has played for Tottenham for the past 10 years, may seek a new challenge. If Son Heung-min decides to leave Tottenham, it will be an interesting transfer. It is known that Son Heung-min is leaving, but more clubs will be interested. Son Heung-min has been one of the best players in the Premier League for the past 10 years, and he is likely to perform very successfully no matter what decision he makes. Son Heung-min will hope to add a trophy in his career."
