Son Heung-min: Tottenham captain to leave this summer after 10 years at club


Tottenham captain Son Heung-min says he will leave the club this summer after 10 years.

The South Korea international joined Spurs from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 and has scored 173 goals in 454 appearances.

He was captain when Tottenham beat Manchester United in the Europa League final in May to clinch their first trophy in 17 years.

The 33-year-old, who is under contract with Spurs until 2026, has been linked with Major League Soccer side Los Angeles FC.

Son described the decision as “the most difficult one I have made in my career” as he spoke to media alongside new manager Thomas Frank.

“I came to north London as a kid – a very young age, a young boy came to London who even didn’t speak English,” Son said.

“Leaving this club as a grown man is a very, very proud moment.”

Tottenham are currently in Seoul as part of their pre-season preparations, with Son set to play his final game for the club in his home country.
