The problem is the Europa League. Tottenham is burdened with a return match in the Europa League. If Son Heung-min returns, he is likely to be a substitute in the second half.
Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou reported Son Heung-min's injury ahead of the Liverpool match on the 25th (Korea time).
Postecoglou said, `Son Heung-min is getting better and better. It's a positive sign for us, but we can't play against Liverpool"All the other players who played in the last game are fine."
It is unlikely that he will play in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League semifinals against Bodo/Glimt on the 2nd of next month.
Postecoglou said Son Heung-min will play in the Europa League. Today is my first training day on the lawn, and I said I feel much better than before."
Son Heung-min is still in the recovery phase.
Postecoglou said "The foot is a weight-bearing area, so a full break was essential"I took a week off and focused on treatment, and now I can enter the recovery stage."
The injury is prolonged. If he can't even substitute in the match against Liverpool, it should be considered impossible to select in the Europa League semifinals. The excessive input of Son Heung-min, who has lost his sense of play, could have negative consequences for Tottenham.

The match between Tottenham and Liverpool on the 28th is a match that draws global attention. This is because Liverpool may confirm the victory of the English Premier League (EPL) this season in the game.
Tottenham has to think about whether to use rotation resources in preparation for the first leg of the Europa League semifinals or face Liverpool with pride.
Tottenham were eliminated in the Carabao Cup semi-finals after losing to Liverpool this season. If he wins the match against Liverpool, Tottenham can start the Europa League schedule with his morale raised. Injuries should be careful, but if you can win, it doesn't seem like a bad choice to do your best.
The biggest variable in advancing to the Europa League final is Postecoglou. This is because he is having a hard time mentally, surrounded by rumors of his replacement. On top of that, the possibility of key defender Christian Romero's departure next season is not one or two things to care about.
Postecoglou said, `If you ask me a lot of questions about the future, I'll get a lot of cool headlines, but that's not the point"It's not Christian Romero's future that matters now, it's not my future."
He said "We are now in the semi-finals of the European tournament. This is a huge opportunity for the club and the fans, and everyone is focusing on it. This is all the fans want" he insisted.
If Son Heung-min returns early on Postecoglou's difficult journey, it can be of great help. Although Son Heung-min does not show as much form as he did in his heyday this season, it is still Son Heung-min who plays a big role at Tottenham. Expectations for the captain's return are growing as he showed light physical movement after taking a sufficient rest this season.
