Recently, the Saudi Pro League has created a stir in the football world by luring famous players to the league, like Sadio Mane, Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Neymar Jr., and others.
Al-Ittihad, a well-known team, is expected to make a big impression in the transfer market this summer with the goal of acquiring Tottenham captain Heung-min Son.
Football Transfers reports that the Jeddah-based team is interested in signing Mohamed Salah from Liverpool and Tottenham sensation Son in order to bolster its front line.
Although Son has stated in the past that he is committed to Tottenham, the report implies that he would reconsider his stay at the team should they not qualify for the UEFA Champions League the following year.
With 12 goals and six assists in 22 games, the South Korean has been Spurs’ best goal scorer in the English Premier League this season, leading the team.
Though he still has less than 18 months left on his current deal, talks might take place if Tottenham is unable to provide him with Champions League action.
This move aligns with Tottenham’s purported desire to strengthen their attacking lineup, as players such as Pedro Neto of Wolves and Raphinha of Barcelona have been highlighted as possible targets.
Spurs will be looking to bolster their roster and stave off interest from other teams for their star players, so the summer transfer window is crucial.

Huge boost for Tottenham: Star player confirms he is close to returning from injury
Pedro Porro, the recently injured player for Ange Postecoglou, has hinted at an impending return to action.
Prior to the team’s league match against Wolves last week, Tottenham’s right-back had avoided injuries all season long until his absence from the club’s open training session sparked questions about his fitness.
Porro’s injury to his muscles was revealed by head coach Postecoglou on Friday during a press conference. Due to an injury he received during training, the full-back will likely miss a few weeks of play.
On his TikTok account, the Spaniard did, however, provide a positive update by sharing a compilation of him working out in the gym along with the message, “Back soon.”
Porro even answered a fan who said, “How long, Porro, not sure whether to transfer you out my FPL team?” in response to the query. In response, he said, “Don’t sell me,” adding an emoji of a laughing face.
The 24-year-old’s absence was noticed during the team’s most recent league loss to Wolves on Saturday, as Emerson Royal, his substitute, found it difficult to equal Porro’s influence.
The former Sporting defender has started all 23 of Spurs’ Premier League games when he has been available, and he has been a constant on the team sheet.
Porro has established himself as an important creative outlet for the Lilywhites, proving his worth as a defender this season with eight assists. With this total, he is tied for fourth place in the division.
Tottenham’s left-back Destiny Udogie has been injured as well, missing the match against the Wanderers in addition to Porro.
His comeback will provide Tottenham a significant advantage in their pursuit of a top-4 finish.
