Football star Son Heung-min announces his decision to leave Tottenham Hotspur, describing it as the toughest choice he's faced in his professional career.
Son Heung-min Bids Farewell to Tottenham Hotspur
Son Heung-min, the South Korean footballer who joined Tottenham Hotspur at the age of 23, announced his intention to leave the English Premier League club this summer. In a media conference held in Seoul, he described the decision as the most difficult of his career.
The pre-season friendly between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United in Seoul could be Son Heung-min's final match for the club, if he indeed leaves. This sentiment was echoed by Son himself, who expressed a desire for a new environment.
Son's last appearance for Tottenham Hotspur, if indeed this is his farewell tour, came in the match against Arsenal in Hong Kong on Thursday. He played 15 minutes and received one of the biggest cheers of the evening, a testament to the impact he has made during his time at the club.
When Son first joined Tottenham Hotspur, he did not speak English. However, he has since become a club legend, captaining the team and leaving a lasting impression on fans and teammates alike. His decision to leave as a grown man is a proud moment for him.
Tottenham Hotspur is supporting Son Heung-min as he looks to move to another team. The club acknowledged his impact and praised him, referring to LAFC as his most likely next destination. Multiple sources from that period support the transfer to LAFC as the expected move following his departure from Tottenham.
At the media conference, Son thanked Tottenham fans for their support and expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to play for the club. He also expressed his hope for the team's future success.
As Son Heung-min prepares for a new chapter in his career, Tottenham Hotspur fans will undoubtedly remember his contributions to the team with fondness. His time at the club has been marked by hard work, dedication, and a deep love for the game.
On Sunday, Tottenham Hotspur will face Newcastle United in a pre-season friendly. This could be the final match of Son Heung-min's time at Tottenham Hotspur, a fitting send-off for a player who has given so much to the club.
As Son Heung-min prepares for a move, Tottenham Hotspur fans will remember his football career with the club, marked by his contributions in the Premier League, particularly in the European-leagues and the Premier-League games. His last appearance for Tottenham Hotspur, if it is indeed his farewell tour, could potentially be during the pre-season friendly against Newcastle United, playing in the Premier League one last time before perhaps joining the LAFC in a new environment, following his exit from Tottenham.
