Tottenham (England) is still 'Sonny sick'
Son Heung-min, who has been at the center of Tottenham for the past decade, has taken on a new challenge. He left Tottenham for LA FC. Son Heung-min has scored 173 goals in 454 games since joining Tottenham through the transfer window in the summer of 2015. During this period, Son Heung-min was honored with the joint top scorer (23 goals) in the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2021-2022 season and the FIFA Pushcashi Award in 2020. Both the EPL's top scorer and the Pushkashi Award are the first and only milestone for an Asian player to date. Above all, he lifted the trophy in the Europa League (UEL) in the 2024-2025 season. In addition, he led the team on and off the ground as captain.
When his break-up with Son Heung-min was decided, Tottenham cried and cried. Yves Bissouma (Tottenham) shed tears throughout the training held at Anyang Stadium on the 2nd, causing regret. Ben Davies, who spent a long time with Son Heung-min, also reportedly couldn't hold back his tears. Younger players also expressed their respect for Son. Tottenham played an off-season friendly match against Newcastle (England) at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 3rd. It was Son Heung-min's farewell match for Tottenham. After the game, Tottenham players gave Son Heung-min 'Hengarae' Also, Brennan Johnson caught the eye by posing for Son Heung-min's scoring ceremony after scoring.

It has been more than a week since Son Heung-min left Tottenham. In the meantime, Son Heung-min joined LA FC and made his debut. Son Heung-min was substituted in the 16th minute of the second half in an away game between the Chicago Fire and the 2025 Major League Soccer (MLS) at Sitgig Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois on the 10th. He cheered every time he caught the ball. Son Heung-min attempted his first MLS shot with his left foot from the front outside the penalty area in the 22nd minute of the second half. His true value was even more glistening at the moment of crisis. Son Heung-min earned a penalty kick in the 32nd minute of the second half when his team was trailing 1-2. He fell behind the opponent's defender while driving the ball in a counterattack. Video VAR confirmed the penalty. Deeney Buanga scored as a kicker. After that, the two teams finished the game 2-2 without any additional points.
Tottenham are still missing Son Heung-min. Johnson surprisingly released a photo taken with Son Heung-min through his personal social media (social network service). Guglielmo Vicario told The Athletic: `I wanted to be with Son forever. We used the same locker room for two seasons. He lifted a huge trophy. We will remember each other. We will meet again. He was my captain. I shall be eternally grateful to him.
