Los Angeles FC keen on move for Tottenham captain Son Heung-min

Son Heung-min is a target for Los Angeles FC and they have made their interest in him known to Tottenham. The London club have yet to receive any bids for Son but they can expect one from LAFC, which would leave their highest-profile player with a decision to make.LAFC, who signed Hugo Lloris from Spurs in December 2023, have tracked Son for some time. It is understood there is no interest in him at present from clubs in Saudi Arabia, which has been mooted as a possible destination.Son, who has one year on his Spurs contract, is poised to travel with the club on their pre-season trip to Hong Kong and his native South Korea. They depart on Sunday after the friendly at Luton on Saturday and Son’s legions of Korean fans are looking forward to seeing him in Seoul next Sunday when Spurs play Newcastle. It is unthinkable that the 33-year-old is not involved. Spurs face Arsenal in Hong Kong before that on Wednesday.Son’s future at Spurs is in considerable doubt, with the new manager, Thomas Frank, offering no guarantees at his unveiling last Friday that the forward would stay beyond the closure of the transfer window. Frank also said he had yet to decide whether Son would retain the captaincy.Son did wear the armband the following day when he played the second half of the 2-0 win at Reading; he was out of sorts and could get nothing going. Spurs appear well stocked in wide attacking areas, having signed Mohammed Kudus from West Ham and made Mathys Tel’s loan from Bayern Munich permanent. Frank can also call upon Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski, Wilson Odobert, Manor Solomon and Mikey Moore.The club want to add the £60m-rated attacking midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest but talks are deadlocked. Forest are unhappy at what they consider to have been an illegal approach from Spurs.skip past newsletter promotionafter newsletter promotionSon is an authentic Spurs legend, having joined them from Bayer Leverkusen 10 years ago and scored 173 goals in 454 appearances. He helped them to win the Europa League last season, their first trophy since 2008.
