Tottenham hero Darren Anderton says the club still has time to convince Heung-min Son to stay long-term/

Anderton is hopeful Son won't follow Harry Kane out of the club.

"If Kane was to leave Tottenham then I think Son would start to question his future," Anderton told GentingBet. "All players do.

"If you see a team-mate go on and leave you're disappointed. Why wouldn't you be? And, at that point, if you don't do well the following season then you're going to ask the questions yourself.

"Of course, you're happy for your team-mate if he goes on and wins the Premier League somewhere or the Champions League, but there'll be a little bit of envy in there that you want that as well.

"You want a piece of that. And if you don't believe that that's going to happen at the club you're at, then you're going to start thinking about moving on.

"Sonny's a great guy, isn't he? He loves Tottenham. I think we can all see that. I don't think it's anything to worry about just yet but if the club do not get back on that path of improving and getting back into the Champions League then your top players are going to start to question whether they want to be there."
