Son "is poised to sign with MLS side LAFC, with an unveiling happening as soon as Wednesday," ESPN reported Monday, citing sources.
The American sports network added that Son is set to join LAFC for a "fee of around $26 million."
Amid months of swirling transfer rumors, Son finally confirmed he is leaving Tottenham Hotspur, just ahead of a pre-season friendly against Newcastle United in Seoul over the weekend, describing it as "one of the hardest decisions" of his football career.
British media outlet BBC also reported similarly, "The final details of the transfer remain in discussion but his move to LAFC is now considered subject just to the completion of paperwork and a medical."
Son, whose contract with Spurs runs until 2026, has scored 173 goals in 454 appearances since his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015.
He is set to head west soon to complete the transfer and begin a new chapter after wrapping up his 10-year stint with Tottenham.
