'He looks very happy away from Tottenham'

Son Heung-min, who joined LA FC in the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS) after ending his ten-year career as Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League (EPL), is performing well every day.

'Aging Curve', which was raised in the 2024-2025 season, the last season of Tottenham, has already disappeared without a trace. As his speed and goal-making ability at his peak revived, he achieved as many as seven offensive points with five goals and two assists in six MLS games.




In particular, Son Heung-min came out as a front-line one-top striker in the 19th round of the 2025 MLS against Real Salt Lake on the 18th (Korea time) and scored a hat trick to lead his team to a 4-1 victory. It is the first time in two years that Son Heung-min scored a hat trick since 2023 when he was at Tottenham. Son Heung-min has achieved a hat trick in the fourth round of Burnley in the 2023-2024 season.

The MLS website also praised Son Heung-min for scoring a hat trick, saying "(SON IS SHINING)" Of course, LA FC's treatment of Son Heung-min, who continues to play such an active role, is bound to be extreme. Coach Steve Cherundolo has absolute confidence.

The situation is incomparable to Tottenham's days, when the club, fans, and local media criticized him. It is true that Son Heung-min showed a somewhat sluggish performance last season when he was wearing the captain's armband and due to the problem of applying coach Enze Postecoglou's tactics.

However, the local eyes on Son Heung-min, who had devoted himself to the team for nearly a decade before, were cold. The memory of doing well was easily forgotten, and only highlighted the appearance of not doing well, leading to a regression of 'not a sense of assertiveness', 'the skill regressed' unleashed a scathing barrage of criticism from one's back. Criticism still remained when Son Heung-min lifted the Europa League title and presented the team with a major championship for the first time in 17 years.

In the end, this cold cold spell is another reason Son Heung-min decided to leave Tottenham.

In fact, Son Heung-min enjoys playing for LA FC after the hat trick. I've played five away games and one home game so far, and I'm still enjoying the game itself. I want to help the team, but it doesn't matter if I don't score. Every moment, every time I participate in every training and every game, I'm happy and happy."

TBR Football says Son Heung-min is enjoying every moment at LA FC. It's not difficult to understand why,' he said, praising Son for having received a lot of criticism in his final season at Tottenham, but now he is back in good form, scoring goals and assists again.

From the Tottenham club's point of view, it may hurt a little bit. Currently, Tottenham has not found a suitable successor since sending Son Heung-min.
