Son Heung-min, captain for both the Korean men's national football team and Tottenham Hotspur, has


revealed he is "uncomfortable" with media speculation on his next destination.


"I have not had any exchanges with the club. I don't have anything to say at this point," Son told reporters


after Korea's 1-0 win over China in a World Cup qualifying match at Seoul World Cup Stadium Tuesday


night. "I feel a little uncomfortable with the situation. I am going to keep doing my best for Tottenham. I


still have terms left on my contract."


Son is signed through June 2025 with Spurs, but English media have speculated that the North London


club could part ways with their Korean star as part of their rebuilding. Some reports even had Son moving


to the Turkish club Fenerbahce and rejoining former Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho.


Son signed his current contract in July 2021, and Spurs reportedly have the option to extend the deal by


an extra 안전 year.


Last summer, Son was linked to a move to Saudi Arabia on a lucrative deal. But after a friendly match at


home, Son told reporters: "Money is not important to me. The most important thing is to play in a league


that I enjoy playing in. I have so much more I want to accomplish in the Premier League."


Spurs finished this past season in fifth place with 66 points, two back of Aston Villa for fourth and a place


in the UEFA Champions League for next season. Son led his club with 17 goals and tied Brennan Johnson


for the club-high 10 assists.
