Tottenham Hotspur attacker Son Heung-min is reportedly unhappy with his contract situation at the club.

According to a report from Spurs News, the 32-year-old South Korean was expecting a long-term contract with the North London club, but there has been no talk regarding a renewal.

His current contract expires next summer and Tottenham have the option to extend it until the summer of 2026. It seems highly likely that Tottenham will take up the option instead of offering him a new long-term deal.

Son has been an exceptional player for Tottenham since joining the club, and his representatives are reportedly unhappy with the situation. It will be interesting to see how Tottenham handle his contract situation now.

The report states that Spurs held talks regarding a new contract with the player before the arrival of Ange Postecoglou, but the situation has not progressed since then.

Graeme Bailey told The Spurs News: “They were talking last year when Ange came in originally, that summer there was talk of a deal, Son came in centre-forward and captain – everything was pointing towards a new contract.

“But now we’re towards the point where Spurs will take the one-year extension option, however, Son’s people are now aware that there is no ongoing talks over a long-term deal. It’s not caught them by surprise as it’s been a long time coming but Son’s people are not particularly happy with how it’s been dealt with and how it’s come about.

“I wouldn’t completely rule out a new contract because it’s Son and Spurs, but right now they are not looking to do it.”

Despite being 32, he is undoubtedly one of the best players at the club and the North London club should look to keep him happy. They will be hoping to compete for major trophies in the coming seasons and they need the quality and experience of the South Korean.

Son has been one of the best attackers in the Premier League since joining Tottenham and he could still be a very important asset for the North London club.
