Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho is confident that Son Heung-min will eventually pen a new long-term contract.

Jose Mourinho has reiterated that he expects Son Heing-min to eventually sign a new contract at Tottenham Hotspur.

The South Korea international, who has scored 16 goals this season, has just under two-and-a-half years remaining on his deal at the North London outfit.

However, despite concerns that Spurs' position regarding the 28-year-old is weakening, Mourinho has backed the club to agree fresh terms with the forward in the future.

Mourinho is quoted by the Evening Standard as saying: "Son is not a problem, he has a contract still for a couple of years if I am not wrong, maybe even three. I believe, just to wait for the right moment to do it.

"Probably this situation with the world where we are, the covid situation, I do not think it is the right moment for players and clubs to discuss contracts with so many people losing jobs and not working and difficulties.

"I believe that when the sun shines again for the world, I believe the club and Sonny they are going to arrive quite easily to a conclusion."

Son has been with Spurs since August 2015, contributing a total of 102 goals from 261 appearances in all competitions.
