I hope our fans cheer for us more," he said, expressing his determination to join Tottenham.

It has already exceeded 400 games in total for Tottenham last season. Since its foundation, only 14 players have set a record of 400 appearances in Tottenham's history. In addition, Son Heung-min's presence alone is expected to help Yang Min-hyuk adapt to Tottenham, as he is already leading the team as captain for two consecutive seasons.

If I play with him, I think I will play with a great honor and appreciation. Of course, I've imagined it. I want to hurry up and show my skills and play together"I'll go and learn a lot.

Just like everyone loves Mikey, I hope everyone loves him like Mikey when Yang Minhyuk is here. He was fantastic in his first season in the K League and scored 12 goals and a lot of help. It's smart, and it won't be afraid," he said, adding that he hopes to give love to Yang Min-hyuk instead of burdening him.

Then "I'm glad a very smart player came to Tottenham. I'll try to help him as much as I can. But you should avoid putting pressure on it. The soccer part is the most important part for Yang to focus on,' he said, adding that he will do his best to help Yang.

Meanwhile, Yang Min-hyuk was born in 2006 in the K-League this season, and despite his young age of 18, Yang Min-hyuk was not behind at all at the professional level. Initially, there were not many expectations that he would play as a main player, but Yang Min-hyuk captured coach Yoon Jung-hwan's heart in pre-season winter training and immediately started the opening game. He also scored his debut goal against Gwangju in the second round, showing his talent from the beginning of the season.




Yang Min-hyuk, who even signed a professional contract, played in 38 K League games and finished the season with 12 goals and 5 assists. It also swept all kinds of awards. Yang Min-hyuk, who won the K-League Young Player of the Month award five times, was delighted with this year's Young Player of the Year and Best 11 at the K-League awards ceremony. Yang Min-hyuk has already demonstrated his skills in various areas such as shooting, passing, goal-making, and kicking on the K-League stage. Many seniors who entered Europe ahead of Yang Min-hyuk also had little talent to show such performance at the professional level at the same age as Yang Min-hyuk.

Yang Min-hyuk, who will join Tottenham in the middle of this season, said, `My goal is to join in the middle and finish the season well without injury. "My goal is to play well during the season and increase the number of points. I didn't set a target (for the number of offensive points)."

In order to join Tottenham, he said he steadily took care of his body even after the end of the season. I think it's 80% to 90% about your physical condition"Join the middle." Looking at it, the focus was on resting so that you wouldn't get injured. I prepared it by taking a rest and exercising"He explained that he focused on rest and pulled himself up.

Tottenham also conducted special management ahead of Yang Min-hyuk's joining. When asked if the club asked him to prepare for anything, he asked him to pay attention to his recovery because he was coming from the end of the season. He delivered a great program focused on stretching and recoveryHe said he even delivered a special program so that Yang Min-hyuk could focus on recovering his body after the end of the season.

In order to adapt to EPL, it is inevitably important for Yam Min-hyuk to stay healthy and active without injury. Tottenham also seems to have paid more attention to Tottenham's adaptation because if it is too much or if it is injured after already playing a season, it could cause a setback in Tottenham's adaptation.

Tottenham are already having a difficult time this season with injuries to some of their attackers. Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson have maintained minimal performance, but Timo Werner, Willson O'Dowbert, Hishalisson and Mikey Moore have not even played properly due to sluggishness and injuries. It is an environment in which more opportunities can come to Yang Min-hyuk if he maintains a healthy body condition and reduces adaptation time. Attention is also focusing on whether Son Heung-min's consideration and support will be able to return to Yang Min-hyuk's quick adaptation.
