Latest transfer news and rumors: Saudi teams trying to tempt Son
Though the mini transfer window for Club World Cup clubs has now closed, summer deals will pick up again soon. The Premier League transfer window reopens Monday, while the rest of Europe's top leagues prepare to do business July 1. Check in every day for all the latest buzz from across the soccer world.
Top story: Son to discuss Spurs future
Son Heung-min is set for talks about his future with Tottenham Hotspur as reports suggest that the South Korean forward could leave this summer. The 32-year-old won't be short on options if his Spurs career comes to an end, with as many as three teams in Saudi Arabia monitoring his situation.
Al-Ahli, Al-Nassr, and Al-Qadsiah are expected to launch pursuits if Son is available and are prepared to approach Tottenham with offers worth €40 million. Although he's been integral since joining 10 years ago, Spurs are understood to be willing to sell him in order to generate revenue. However, a transfer will have to wait until after the team's tour in Son's home country later this summer. (talkSPORT)
