Son Heung-min (LAFC), who made his perfect debut in the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS), is still not erased from Tottenham.
Tottenham recalled Son Heung-min on SNS on the 10th (Korea time). It introduced the story of Harry Kane (Bayern Munich). Tottenham and Bayern Munich played a friendly match between 2025 and 2026 preseason at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany on the 8th.
Kane showed off his presence with the first goal. Bayern won 4-0. But Tottenham didn't have Son Heung-min. There was a big vacancy. On the 7th, he completely transferred to LA FC after 10 years of companionship with Tottenham.
Kane had an exclusive interview with his former team, Tottenham, after the match. His evaluation of Son Heung-min was re-appeared on social media. Kane also recognized Son Heung-min as a 'legend' in name and reality.
`I sincerely congratulate Son on his time at Tottenham. He will be remembered as a legend for Tottenham. There was no better finish than lifting the trophy last season"I miss Son Heung-min both as a player and personally. I wish you all the best in the United States." Kane also revealed that he promised a reunion, saying, `I texted him early this morning, but he said we'd meet again soon.'

Kane was Tottenham 'One Club Man' from the 2022-2023 season. The route was changed in August 2023. He moved to Germany's prestigious Bayern team to realize his dream of winning the championship. He won the top of the Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season and enjoyed the joy of the top for the first time.
Coincidentally, last season's Son Heung-min, who shook off Kane's 「Winning」, also presented Tottenham with the championship if he ascended the throne in the Europa League. It was the first time in 17 years since the top of the league cup in the 2007-2008 season. The European tournament was the first championship in 41 years since the 1983-1984 season.
After Kane, Son Heung-min also left Tottenham. However, history remains. Son Heung-min and Kane boasted a deadly partnership. The two scored 47 goals in the English Premier League (EPL). It is ranked first in the EPL's history of offensive combinations.
Kane also missed Son Heung-min in an interview with reporters after the match against Tottenham. "As players, I think we have shown the best partnership, especially in the history of the EPL. That connection was good. It was a lot of fun to play together on the ground`"Son Heung-min is a really cool person above all else. I got to know him well as a friend, and he's really humble and a good person."

Son Heung-min made his historic debut in the U.S. after Germany and England on the 10th. He stepped on the ground in the 16th minute of the second half in an away game against Chicago Fire FC.
It was the best first line as there was no goal. He won a penalty in the 32nd minute of the second half, when his team was trailing 1-2, and Dennis Buanga calmly scored the equalizer. LA FC drew 2-2 with Chicago.
Sports media 'ESPN' evaluated that Son Heung-min immediately influenced LA FC and made a strong impression from his first appearance. It also decorated the main screen of the MLS website. MLS is 'Strong Debut! With the title 'Son Heung-min influenced LAFC immediately', Son Heung-min's era officially began in MLS.
Son Heung-min is making a hot topic of conversation by breaking the MLS record transfer fee. His ransom was $26 million (about 36 billion won), exceeding the $22 million (about 30.5 billion won) that Atlanta United spent to recruit striker Emmanuel Lateas last winter. Son Heung-min joined LA FC three days after his visa came out faster than expected.
