Son has entered the final year of his £200,000 per week contract at Spurs, placing his future in north London in doubt after a decade of loyal service and finally a major trophy
Son Heung-min is set to turn down the advances of Los Angeles FC this summer but the Tottenham captain retains interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia.
Spurs skipper Son, 32, has entered the final 12 months of his deal in north London and there has been speculation of a move away from the club having finally won a trophy in May’s Europa League final.
After a decade of loyal service to the club Son, who earns £200,000 per week, is open to moving on but he will also wait for the right opportunity rather than rush into a move.
And LAFC are set to be snubbed, as first reported by the Sun, despite Son considering Major League Soccer a reasonable relocation option.

Tottenham are set to step up pre-season preparations next week under new head coach Thomas Frank. The Dane last month replaced gung-ho Ange Postecoglou after he paid the price for a 17th-place league finish.
But Postecoglou also won the club’s first piece of silverware for 17 years by winning the Europa League – meaning Frank will not just inherit a squad full of players that excite him but have an immediate chance to impress in the Champions League.
And in his first interview since leaving Brentford, who received £10m in compensation, Frank made similar noises to his predecessor when it comes to describing his desired style.
“The intention is to play aggressive, front-footed football. I know the ethos and the history of the club is it’s massive on attacking football,” he said.
“There’s so much attacking talent in the squad. I’m very excited by that. They’ve clearly shown over the last two seasons that the ability to score goals is fantastic.
“I’m very, very in on that. I love a team that scores goals. We just want to build on that attacking football we already have.
“I’m a big believer in if you don’t take risks, you also take a risk. It’s important we take risks. “If we play man-to-man in some situations, the risk is you need to play forward. If you don’t risk, you can’t create anything.
“The players need to be brave and trust themselves. I’ll do my best to instil that trust. If they lose the ball by trying, that’s never a problem. Of course I can react, that’s natural, but they need to do that.
“If they don’t work hard, I struggle more with that. That’s my non-negotiable. If you don’t take risks, it’s impossible to achieve something big.”
