The new coach doesn t like it? The Asian No. 1 player is on the verge of leaving the team. How should he choose the way forward at the age of 33?

For Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min, the new season is indeed an important node, and he has reached the crossroads of his career. The 33-year-old "Asian No. 1" won the first big trophy for Tottenham in many years with the team last season. After reaching the top of the Europa League, it also realized its dream. Although he had previously negotiated contract renewal conditions with Tottenham, according to the design ideas of new coach Frank and the team's recruitment plan, Son Heung-min's position in Tottenham in the new season may become relatively embarrassing.

Although no one will let the captain leave the team directly, his status is no longer as good as before when the main position is difficult to protect. Postkoglu respects Son Heung-min very much and will give him enough opportunities as long as he is healthy. But after Frank arrived, Tottenham seemed to want to start a new plan. This was not only the idea of the new coach, but also the instruction from senior management.

When the reporter asked the Korean captain question, Frank said that he wanted a dynamic player who wholeheartedly served the club. If a person worked hard in the club for too long, then he should "think down" (transfer). This is called a "name" to their captain.

Therefore, the 33-year-old Son Heung-min is indeed older and is probably not in the long-term plan of the new coach Frank. Son Heung-min has always been known for his high self-discipline and strict requirements, both on and off the court. Facing Tottenham's attitude, he probably will also think about the future. In addition, his contract expires next summer, he does have a chance to transfer. If it is delayed to the winter window, Tottenham will face the risk of other teams being exempted from signing, which is not what they think.

Although Son Heung-min's form has declined, he still played 46 games for Tottenham last season, scoring 11 goals and 12 assists, and his data is still good. But there is a huge paradox next, Son Heung-min's state, ability and experience are indeed worthy of playing for the giants, but according to his past style and needs, he needs a stable main position. However, with high transfer fees, annual salary and older age, it is estimated that no wealthy family would offer such conditions, which will make his dream of wealthy family difficult to continue. Most of the people who can afford the annual salary will be Saudi or American teams.

This is probably not his choice for Son Heung-min, who has extremely high self-requirement. The contradiction is now in front of him, how should he make a decision.
