Tottenham’s forward Son Heung-min has signed a new four-year contract with the club, which will keep him in north London until 2025.
Son, 29, joined Spurs from Bayer Leverkusen in August 2015 and has scored 107 goals and made 64 assists in 280 games in all competitions since then. He has developed into one of the Premier League’s finest players in his time and reached the Champions League final with the club in 2019.
Son said of the confirmation: “It was already a great honor to play here for six years, the club has shown me massive, massive respect and of course I am very happy to be here.
“It’s like home, especially with the fans, the players, the staff. There was no decision. It was easy. I’m so happy to be here and will be so happy to see the fans again soon. “
Fabio Paratici, the club’s new CEO, added: “We are delighted to have agreed on a new long-term contract with Son as we approach the start of a new season and a new chapter for the club with Nuno Espirito Santo.

“Everyone can see the real positive impact he has on the club, both on and off the pitch, and we are very happy that he will play a role in what we are trying to achieve in the coming years.”
This summer looks to be a busy one for Spurs, with Paratici and the new boss Nuno already active in the transfer window.
While there are expected to be a number of new arrivals – with the signings of Bryan Gil, Cristian Romero and Pierluigi Gollini who all understood to be close to finishing – there will also be many departures.
Erik Lamela is on his way to Sevilla, although the club has denied that Harry Kane is close to joining Manchester City after reports on Thursday night of a move of 160 million pounds.
