Turkish media: Mourinho hopes to sign Son Heung-min, Fenerbahce is willing to offer him an annual salary of 12 million euros

June 13, according to Türkiye's Liberty News, at the special request of coach Mourinho, Tottenham striker Son Heung-min has been included in Fenerbahce's signing list. Fenerbahce is willing to offer an annual salary of about 12 million euros to sign the South Korean striker.

Son Heung-min, 32, has worked with Mourinho at Tottenham for more than a year, and Mourinho has praised him on many occasions. Mourinho's request to reunite with the former lover in Fenerbahce has been personally conveyed to club chairman Ali Kochi.

Fenerbahce Club Chairman Ali Kochi is also very active in introducing Son Heung-min's transfer and has immediately started formal contact. It is reported that Fenerbahce has obtained preliminary contact with Son Heung-min's agency CAABase and conveyed the following message to them: "You will first resolve the transfer issue with Tottenham. We are willing to sign him with twice the current salary of Son Heung-min (about 12 million euros)."

In addition, Son Heung-min's agency CAABase also cooperated with Mourinho. Although Mourinho's agent is transfer tycoon Mendes, he has a partnership with CAABase in terms of portrait rights and business affairs. In 2021, Son Heung-min switched to CAABase before renewing his contract with Tottenham. At that time, his coach was Mourinho, and Mourinho was said to have played a role in Son Heung-min's decision.

Son Heung-min's contract with Tottenham was due to expire at the end of the season, but he extended the contract for one year on January 7 this year. However, with the dismissal of the meritorious coach Postkoglu, the South Korean captain who had played for Tottenham for many years also decided to leave the team.
