The player who benefited the most from Son Heung-min's joining LAFC (Los Angeles FC) is Dennis Vuang.

The British Guardian reported on the 30th (Korea time) "When Son joined LAFC last month, huge expectations followed"because he is Korea's most popular sports star and one of the best Asian players in history" "Son Heung-min was able to provide new value to coach Steve Cherundolo's team, which is rich in offensive resources including Buanga."," he added.

Buanga has been named a three-time MLS All-Star. Son Heung-min scored 13 goals in the league right before his debut, serving as the main scorer for LAFC, which was sixth in the Western Conference at the time. Son Heung-min's addition was expected to have a positive effect on Buanga, but it was unclear whether both players would fit well because they were strikers who used speed from the side.




However, when I watched the game, the combination of the two was the best in MLS. In the counterattack situation, the two players' teamwork made the opposing defender out of his mind. Son Heung-min gave Buanga a goal gift by inducing a penalty kick in his debut match.

Son Heung-min and Buanga have scored 17 goals in the last six games. This is a record that no duo has ever set in MLS history. Son Heung-min scored multiple goals in a match against St. Louis City on the 28th of last month. Buanga also scored one goal, and LAFC won four consecutive games.

The media referred to the two as 'devastating duo'. Buanga expressed his satisfaction with Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min's assistance is needed for the top scorer in the 2025 season of MLS.




"Playing with Son Heung-min gives you a really good sense," Vuanga said. As you can see, we fit really well, and thanks to that, the whole team is working out well in attack."

After joining Son Heung-min, Buanga scored 10 goals, including two hat-tricks. This made him the club's all-time leading scorer beyond Carlos Vela and the first player in MLS history to score more than 20 goals in three consecutive seasons.

"Son Heung-min is a great player with a great reputation," Buanga said. "Especially in the Premier League, he is a player everyone knows. But now he's here."




The duo are trying to give Cherundolo his last trophy after this season.

Buanga said "I really want to present him with a championship in his last season. I think winning the MLS Cup will be very important for everyone."
