Tottenham forward Son Heung-min switches agents to join CAA

Published on: 28 October 2020

Tottenham star Son Heung-min has been snapped by the same agents who represent Spurs boss Jose Mourinho with the Premier League club keen to tie down the forward to a new deal.

Son still has three years remaining on his contract in north London but Tottenham are keen for him to commit his long-term future to the club.

Son has joined American sports agency CAA, specifically CAA Base, who are responsible for Mourinho's commercial deals, according to the Associated Press.

One of their star players being represented by the same agents as their manager therefore comes as a huge boost to Tottenham's hopes of trying to agree new terms with Son.

CAA also represent Tottenham and England midfielder Dele Alli as well as Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and Everton's summer signing James Rodriguez.

Tottenham boss Mourinho revealed last week that he is convinced Son will sign a new contract at the club to improve his £150,000-a-week deal.

'I would love that,' he said. 'Son has three years of contract so it's not like we're in an extreme situation of everybody being worried.

'It's more that Son loves it here, I believe that he would like to commit his future to the club for a long time.'

The South Korea international has made a sensational start to the new campaign, scoring 10 goals and supplying four assists in just nine matches.

Eight of those goals have come in the Premier League, putting him as the division's top scorer after six matches.

Son's partnership with the club's star striker Harry Kane has reached a new level this season with the Englishman often the provider for Son's goals. Kane supplied the assist for Son's winner at Burnley on Monday night.
