Coupang Play will introduce the '2025 Coupang Play Series' with prestigious EPL clubs on the 19th. The first invited team in this series is Tottenham led by Captain Son Heung-min.
Coupang Play Series is a large soccer event hosted, organized, and broadcasted by Coupang Play during the pre-season of European football. For the past three years from 2022, Tottenham, Sevilla (Spain), Manchester City (England), Atletico Madrid (Spain), Paris Saint-Germain (France) and Bayern Munich (Germany) have been invited to present the 'Dream Match'.
Tottenham is planning to visit Korea again this year following last year. Along with Tottenham captain Son Heung-min, attention is also focusing on the addition of promising Yang Min-hyuk, who has completed his Queens Park Rangers (QPR) loan. Yang Min-hyuk was selected as a member of Coupang Wow in the '2024 Coupang Play Series' last year and faced Tottenham as a member of the 'Couple Youngple'. This time, Son Heung-min and Yang Min-hyuk, who will wear the same uniform, are expected to show their teamwork in front of domestic fans.
Donna Maria Cullen, Tottenham's general director, said "South Korea is a very special place for Tottenham, and we are very happy to visit again this summer. Through the Coupang Play series, we will interact with enthusiastic fans in Korea and continue the tradition of club tours such as charity activities and local cultural experiences." Coupang Play signed a strategic partnership with EPL in March and announced that it will exclusively broadcast all Premier League games live from the 2025-26 season.
Coupang Play is in the process of approving the game with the Korea Football Association for the successful hosting of the tournament and is currently in the final stages. After the final completion of the relevant approval process, detailed information such as additional participating teams, game schedules, and ticket reservations for the '2025 Coupang Play Series' will be released sequentially through an official announcement later.
