The expression 'King without Son Heung-min (Hichalisong is king without Son Heung-min)' was not a joke. It was a reality.

Tottenham Hotspur, where Son Heung-min left, looked quite grim. Thomas Frank took the helm, but the power was not strengthened smoothly in the summer transfer market. Son Heung-min's external power transfusion to fill the vacancy continued to be frustrated. Even James Madison was left for a long time due to injury. He even felt a sense of danger of a big disaster in the new season.

However, there was a surprising twist that could dispel all these concerns at once.




There was an incredible situation in which Brazilian striker Hishalisson, who was called out by Tottenham fans for being treated as a `chunky guy' and `troublemaker, was splendidly revived as the team's new ace.

He started in the opening match of the English Premier League (EPL) against Burnley at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 16th (Korea time) and scored a fantastic volley into the opponent's net in the 10th minute of the first half, followed by a picturesque right-footed bicycle kick in the 15th minute of the second half. Tottenham, with Hishalisson's multi-goal lead, won the game 3-0, including Brennan Johnson's additional goal.

Thanks to Hishalisson's strong performance, Tottenham can clear their fears of weakness and start the season in the leading group.




At the same time, it is drawing analysis that the sluggishness so far is not a problem unique to Hishalisson, but a side effect of team tactics and player combinations. Hishalisson, who joined Tottenham for a whopping £60 million (about KRW 113.1 billion) in the summer 2022 transfer market, was highly expected as a front-line striker to fill the vacancy left by Harry Kane.

However, Hishalisson quickly became a 'curse' at Tottenham. He was pointed out as an example of 'failed investment' as he continued to be injured in his below-expected goal-making ability. In the 2024-2025 season, he played in 15 EPL games and scored only four goals (one assist).

Therefore, we have to sell it right away in the transfer market this summerThere were constant voices from fans saying '. However, Hishalisson insisted on staying at Tottenham. Even this attitude was criticized by fans.




But it was not always criticized. At least, he was loved by Korean fans for his love and hatred of Son Heung-min. This is because even though his performance was not good, Hishalisson has always continued his support for Captain Son Heung-min with 'Son Heung-min Baragi' at Tottenham.

Even after Son Heung-min left for LA FC, "We have to make a statue of Son Heung-min right away. Son Heung-min, who was our captain, said, "He is Tottenham's best legend."

However, when Hishalisson, who continued his affection and follow-up for Son Heung-min, revealed his potential after Son Heung-min left, there are doubts that Son Heung-min might have been Hishalisson's suppressor.

"He also showed good performance in the UEFA Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain," Frank said of Hichalisson. I've always loved his chalice. I thought he was a good player when he played for Everton"When I joined Tottenham, I knew I had to protect Hishalisson, who had been suffering from injuries. It's a good start."

The enemy commander is also impressed with Hishalisson's performance.

British media TBR Football reported on the 17th that `Burnley's manager Scott Parker, who is from Tottenham, praised Hisalisson's second goal as a world-class finish``.

The Athletic, a global sports media outlet, said 'Hichalisson was an enigmatic player in the EPL, but he showed his best talent after playing in the 2023-2024 season through last week's Super Cup match against Paris Saint-Germain and the EPL openerHe has consistently scored nine goals in nine starts at Tottenham's home stadium. He showed a finishing touch that reminded Harry Kane of, and above all, he praised Kane for his style of finishing. Attention is focusing on whether Hishalisson, who sent Son Heung-min and began his career as a spectacular solo player, will continue to play as Tottenham's ace until the end.
