Son Heung-Min wants to quit Tottenham in 2023, and there are three major clubs who are interested in signing him.
That is according to Sport1, which reports that the South Korea star wants to win some major trophies before the end of his career.
Son is concerned having just turned 30 this summer that time is running out for him.

He has thus made it known that he wants to join a team that can realistically challenge for the league title or Champions League.
Who wants to buy Son Heung-Min?
Sport1 reports that the three clubs who want to sign Son in 2023 are Liverpool, Real Madrid and PSG.
Liverpool need to refresh their ageing frontline, while PSG know that Lionel Messi’s contract is expiring and Kylian Mbappe is eyeing the exit door. As for Madrid, they still have no natural right-sided attacker, while Karim Benzema turns 35 before the end of the year.
Son has been brilliant for Tottenham since joining from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015, even finishing joint top scorer in the Premier League last season.
He has netted 136 goals in 341 appearances for the club – a fine record over the seven years he has spent at the club.
Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti is a confirmed admirer of the player and Son himself is carefully considering his next move in his career.

Son has done exceptionally over the last year, and even finished 11th in the race for the Ballon d’Or last week – a testament to the brilliant year he had on an individual basis.
However, despite his heroics, he is yet to win a major trophy with Tottenham, having played in various finals but having no silverware to his name.
He has a contract with Tottenham until the summer of 2025, but it seems unlikely he will see that out.
