Heung-min Son is already a Tottenham legend

Son is now not just Spurs’ captain and their best player but he is now also the face of the club, having been at the North London side for nine years.

The 31-year-old is already considered to be one of the club’s biggest modern-day legends and his stature will only grow further if he spends a few more years at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Few players over the course of the club’s history have been as loved by the supporters as the South Korean is and that stems from the fact that he too seems to have a lot of affection for the club, which is rare to see in modern-day football.

Son loves playing for his beloved Spurs

Just a little over a week ago, the forward rubbished the rumours linking him with a move away from N17, admitting that he is ‘uncomfortable’ with the speculation and insisting that he has no plans of leaving the club anytime soon (The Mirror).

In an interview with Tatler Asia, Son was asked what has been the best moment of his career so far and his answer would be music to the ears of Tottenham fans.

He said: “When I played for the [South Korean] national team and when I joined Hamburger SV for the first time. And, of course, when I joined Tottenham Hotspur.”

It is very very rare in modern-day football for a player to have such a special connection with a club as Son has with Tottenham.

Spurs fans should cherish every moment of seeing the 31-year-old don the famous Lilywhite shirt.
