Even after leaving, Son Heung-min gave Tottenham Hotspur a huge profit.
Spurs Web reported on the 13th (Korea time) "Tottenham is estimated to have earned about £10 million (about KRW 18.6 billion) in two Asian Tour games alone."This figure is an amount that should put a smile on the face of Chairman Daniel Levy, and it was driven by a number of revenue factors," he said.
The stadium was full of spectators, and even limited-edition uniforms were sold, and Tottenham Hotspur's pre-season tour of Asia was a huge success. It was Tottenham's pre-season under new coach Thomas Frank.
The team headed to Asia, where full-fledged revenue generation began. Tottenham beat Arsenal 1-0 in the North London derby at Kai Tak Sports Park in Hong Kong. The match against Newcastle in Seoul drew 1-1. This game was Son Heung-min's farewell match for Tottenham. Korean fans filled the stadium despite the hot weather to see Son's last appearance at Tottenham.
All seats on the Asian tour are sold out. The majority of the audience wore Tottenham uniforms and cheered for Son Heung-min. In addition, the club launched a limited-edition uniform worn only in two preseason Asian games, which immediately became a huge hit within the region.
As well as selling tickets and merchandise, Tottenham has also signed a partnership with premium pet food brand Frontier Pets.
In addition to its commercial success, Tottenham has worked hard on social contribution on its Asian tour. Seoul partnered with Best Buddies, one of the world's largest organizations supporting people with developmental disabilities.
In addition, some of the tour's limited-edition uniforms were donated to charities, and players and staff contributed to the community by interacting directly with fans. Tottenham has traditionally included philanthropy on every overseas tour, and this time the tradition has continued. Based on these various activities, the fan base continues to expand around the world.
