  • Saudi Pro League sides Al-Ahli, Al-Nassr and Al-Qadsiah are pursuing the 32-year-old forward alongside Fenerbahce under Jose Mourinho.
  • Any funds from Son’s departure are earmarked to strengthen the squad under new head coach Thomas Frank.
  • With one year remaining on his contract, Son is reportedly ready to depart after a decade at Spurs and Europa League success.
