Tottenham Hotspur attacker Son Heung-min has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
The 32-year-old has been on the radar of MLS clubs like the Los Angeles Football Club. However, a report from FootballAsian has now revealed that the player has decided to stay at Tottenham beyond this summer.
The player will now meet with the newly appointed Tottenham manager, Thomas Frank, to discuss plans for the next season. The development will come as a major blow for LAFC, who were hoping to secure his signature this summer.
The 32-year-old is now expected to report to Tottenham for preseason training.
Can Son Heung-min hold down a regular starting spot?
Tottenham are looking to bring in attacking reinforcements, and they have been linked with players like Eberechi Eze, Bryan Mbeumo and Antoine Semenyo. It remains to be seen whether Son is given ample opportunities in the starting line-up next season.
There is no doubt that he is a world-class player on his day, and he has been an exceptional performer for Tottenham since joining them. He had a mediocre season by his standards last time out, and he will look to bounce back strongly next season.
Tottenham will look to bounce back
Spurs finished in the bottom half of the table last season, and they will look to bounce back strongly. They will look to push for a top-four finish and do well in the domestic trophies. Son will be instrumental in their hopes of doing well next season. Apart from his quality as a player, his leadership skills and experience could prove to be vital.
