# Tottenham Hotspur: Joe Lewis and ENIC group approve new contract for Son Heung-min

**According to a report by [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-joe-lewis-green-lights-mega-deal-spurs-in-talks-to-agree-contract-by-1-jan/), Joe Lewis and the ENIC group have approved a new blockbuster contract for Tottenham superstar Son Heung-min – coming just a week after Paul Robinson claimed such a contract offer would be ‘[amazing news for Spurs](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/paul-robinson-excited-spurs-plot-new-deal-son-heung-min/)‘.**

### Son set for new deal

Son, who has been a shining light alongside fellow star man Harry Kane this season, forming a deadly partnership with the Englishman, still doesn’t earn anywhere near as much as his star teammates.

Compared to the likes of Gareth Bale, Kane and even Tanguy Ndombele – Son earns around[£140,000-per-week,](https://www.spotrac.com/epl/tottenham-hotspur-fc/) with the former trio taking home larger amounts, despite making similar contributions under Jose Mourinho.

Now, as per Football Insider, Lewis and the ENIC group have approved of a new blockbuster deal for Son in reward of his incredible contributions so far this season.

### Transfer Tavern take

Indeed, this update claims talks are at an advanced stage with an announcement reportedly imminent – and it’s safe to say to this news could be ‘amazing’ for the Lilywhites as Robinson claims.

At 28-years-old, Son is currently in the prime of his career, and there is currently nothing stopping top clubs from weighing up a move for the ‘[very underrated’](https://www.anfieldwatch.co.uk/very-underrated-player-pundit-names-spurs-player-that-he-believes-could-play-for-liverpool/) ace.

If Tottenham wish to keep hold of the winger who is, arguably, one of Mourinho’s most crucial assets, a bumper new deal to sweeten his stay is definitely needed.

Now that ENIC have been given their thumbs up, it could only be a matter of time before Spurs tie down the South Korean star – gifting Mourinho a huge boost in his hunt for silverware.
