As we edge closer to the summer transfer window, Tottenham’s squad changes are also drawing nearer.
No matter how much Spurs supporters may want to keep certain players at the club, speculation continues to grow over potential departures.
One of the key names linked with an exit is South Korean captain Heung-Min Son, who has reportedly attracted interest from major clubs such as Bayern Munich, Manchester United, and several Saudi Arabian teams.
Perhaps even more concerning for Spurs fans is defender Micky van de Ven, who was linked with Real Madrid just last week.
As if that weren’t enough, another forward’s future is now uncertain—Dominic Solanke.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Tottenham News, TV commentator Ian Darke shared his thoughts, suggesting that Solanke is the most likely to leave the club.
"Tel looks like he’ll be at Tottenham permanently, and then there’s Danso; Brennan Johnson should stay," Darke said.
"Solanke is one of the top four or five strikers in the Premier League and I’d say he will likely be a target when fit if they’re not in Europe; Micky van de Ven might have a lot of admirers and then there’s James Maddison too."
Darke also explained that, given Solanke’s admirers, he could receive tempting offers if Tottenham fail to qualify for European competitions next season.
"I'm not sure if too many of them, based on this year’s form, have forced themselves onto the radar of many big clubs. I would lean towards Solanke having the most admirers."
Unfortunately, the striker has been sidelined for some time after suffering an injury during training.
His absence has been felt within the first team, prompting Spurs to explore alternative options—such as their recent interest in Ipswich Town striker Liam Delap.
If Solanke decides to leave, it would open the door for Delap to step in, as we recently reported.
It is believed that if Delap were to arrive, Solanke would be unwilling to settle for a bench role—or vice versa.
