Football rumours: No word on Son Heung-min’s Tottenham contract extension


What the papers say
Tottenham have yet to kickstart talks to extend captain Son Heung-min’s contract. The Times says Spurs plan to take up the option to extend the forward’s contract before the end of the year, but Son himself said the option is yet to be triggered.




Deciding Everton manager Sean Dyche’s fate will be prospective owner Dan Friedkin’s first act when his £500million club takeover is approved.
The Mirrors reports the club have shelved talks over an extension on Dyche’s contract until the takeover deal is complete. His current contract will expire in July 2025. Friedkin’s Goodison Park purchase still needs to be ratified by the Premier League, FA and the Financial Conduct Authority.
