Tottenham Hotspur winger Son Heung-min has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich.
Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min has told Goal that he is happy at the club amid links with a move away from the club.
Son may have developed season-on-season with Tottenham, but he made his name over in the Bundesliga with two German sides.
The South Korean star, 26, moved to Hamburg in 2008, and hit 20 goals in 78 games before heading to Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2013.
Two years later, Spurs swooped to land Son, and having scored 39 goals in the last two seasons, he has become a star – and is now attracting interest back in Germany.
Calciomercato report that Bayern Munich are looking to land Son in 2019, seemingly eyeing him up as a potential successor to either Arjen Robben or Frank Riberty out wide.
Son is far more attractive now that he has gained exemption from national service in his native South Korea, but Tottenham would be reluctant to sell regardless having tied him to a new three-year extension in July, keeping him at the club until 2023.
Now, speaking after Saturday’s 2-1 win over Brighton and Hove Albion, Son has told Goal that he is happy with Tottenham having recently renewed his contract, and believes that he needs to focus on his game with Spur rather than the Bayern rumours.
“I recently renewed my contract with Tottenham, and I believe I need to focus on here to do more for the team. I’m happy at Tottenham,” said Son.
