AliousAl Ittihad, a prominent team in the Saudi Pro League, has set its sights on Tottenham Hotspur’s captain, Heung-min Son, as a potential acquisition.
Reports from TEAMtalk suggest that the club is considering Son as an option if their ambitious attempt to sign Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah falls through. Known for their aggressive approach in the transfer market, Al Ittihad had previously proposed a hefty £150 million offer for Salah, which was declined.
The club has already made significant signings, including Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante, and Jota, and while they haven’t ruled out another attempt at Salah, Son is now seen as a viable candidate to strengthen their lineup.
Son’s performance has been pivotal for Tottenham, especially during the last season where he led the team with 17 goals and contributed 10 assists across 35 Premier League matches.
His potential exit would be a major blow to Spurs, who depend on his attacking contributions.
With his contract set to expire next June and renewal talks ongoing, Son’s future at the club is in limbo.
A transfer to Al Ittihad would significantly impact Tottenham, especially following the loss of Harry Kane the previous summer.
Should Son leave, Timo Werner, Tottenham’s recent loanee, may step up to fill the void on the left wing. Nonetheless, Tottenham faces a tough period of adjustment.
The club’s strategy in the current transfer window will be critical as they seek to fortify their team and hold onto essential players, despite increasing interest from top-tier clubs.
