Heung-min Son says he is not worried about his Tottenham future despite reading about a potential exit from White Hart Lane this summer.
Son endured a tough debut season in the Premier League, but has informed Tottenham of his wish to play for South Korea at the Olympics - a scenario which would mean missing the start of Spurs' 2016/17 season.
The 23-year-old has recently been linked with a move away from north London despite joining Spurs just a year ago for £22 million, but remains unfazed by the rumours.
"I saw the articles but I've heard nothing about my transfer," Son told reporters while on international duty.
"Should I be worried? I don't think so. I already told Tottenham that I want to play in Olympic Games, they're looking into it positively."
Standard Sport understands that Son's performance during the 5-1 defeat at Newcastle on the final day of the Premier League campaign angered boss Mauricio Pochettino and some team-mates, woith the 23-year-old taken off at half-time.

Despite reports of a potential move away from Spurs, Son is still keen on playing at the Olympics.
The forward is likely to be named as three “over-age” players in the squad, which will predominantly contain players under 23, for the Games football tournament in Brazil in August.
The opening game of the tournament, which lasts from August 4-20, takes place nine days before the 2016-17 Premier League campaign begins.
Spurs have the right to deny Son permission to travel to Brazil but the player hopes they will rule in his favour.
“I already told my club that I want to go the Olympics, and they seemed to be examining my request with a positive attitude,” said Son, who will be 24 when the Games start.
