Tottenham manager Thomas Frank plans to announce his captain to succeed Son Heung-min soon.

Tottenham will play Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) at Friuli Stadium in Udinese, Italy, at 4 a.m. on the 14th (Korea time) in the 2025-2026 UEFA Super Cup.

It is Tottenham's first official game without legendary Son Heung-min. We have already played against Bayern Munich and lost 0-4, but that game is a pre-season friendly, so it doesn't mean much. However, the Super Cup against PSG is a game that can be aimed at winning the championship right away. Tottenham will play in the Europa League (UEL) title.




There are two major gaps in Tottenham due to Son Heung-min's departure. It's a scorer inside the stadium. As consistent and stable as Son Heung-min has disappeared. It's leadership off the field. As Son Heung-min, who used to unite his team members, left, he now has to find a new leader.

Frank said, `The allegations will be announced tomorrow. The leadership group will be announced later this monthHe explained that Tottenham's new captain will be revealed in the match against PSG.

There are currently three leading candidates for the argument being mentioned. Christian Romero, Ben Davies and Guglielmo Vicario. British Football Insider claimed on the 11th that Frank should make a decision among Romero, Vicario and Davis as the captain of Tottenham legend Son Heung-min.

Regarding Romero, the media said, `Romero, who has worn the captain's armband when Son Heung-min was absent due to injury, is of course mentioned as a candidate. However, he has been criticized for his rough play and discipline. Interestingly, Romero scored at least a yellow card since joining Tottenham last season and did not receive a red card after four seasons. This may be the effect of reduced playing time due to injury, but it may be a sign that it is gradually maturing. As he enters his career heyday at 27, he has learned from his past mistakes and seems ready to take on the captaincy role under the new coach.

On Davis, he is currently one of the oldest players in the team and the last player left as a member of the 2018-2019 European Champions League final (against Liverpool). Coach Frank praised Davis, saying, `Davis is not very selfish, and he knows how to help the team and his juniors.' and directly mentioned the possibility of appointing the captain. However, he evaluated that there is a possibility that he will be pushed out of the main competition.

Finally, regarding Vicario 'In pre-season interviews, he revealed his goals for the season so candidly that he was evaluated as a'natural leader'. His calm personality and stable presence can give the team confidence, and Son is also likely to recommend him as captain'
