Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min has been excluded from the list against Wolverhampton. Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou excluded Son Heung-min from the 32nd round of the 2024-2025 Premier League against Wolverhampton at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton, England on the 13th (Korea time).
The British Evening Standard predicted earlier that Son Heung-min will rest with Mickey Panderpen, Destiny Udoghi and James Madison. Analysts say it is a rotation to prepare for the second round of the Europa League quarterfinals against Frankfurt (Germany). Of these, Madison is in the starting lineup, while Udo Gigi and Panderpen start on the bench.
After returning to Tottenham after completing the A-match schedule in March, Son Heung-min played in the first round of the Europa League quarterfinals against Frankfurt through Chelsea and Southampton. Although he took a break after traveling long distances, it is true that he is physically burdened by playing in most games this season. Coach Postecoglou, who is in desperate need of a second-round victory as he drew 1-1 in the first leg of the quarterfinals, chose to give Son Heung-min a full rest.
Hwang Hee-chan starts from the bench again this time. From the FA Cup against Bournemouth on the 2nd of last month to the match against Ipswich on the 5th, they were all on the replacement list. Among them, the only participation was against Everton on the 9th of last month. He played 16 minutes as a substitute. Wolverhampton coach Vitor Pereira set up an offensive line with Larsen, Munesh and Belgard.
