A statue of Son Heung-min, which Tottenham fans dreamed of, could appear at Tottenham Stadium.

The British Spurs Web reported on the 20th (Korea time) 'Tottenham unveiled its plan to build a legendary statue'

Spursweb has insisted for many years that Tottenham fans should make statues of their clubs and celebrate them forever. Now that wish can become a reality. Tottenham have long insisted on a policy of not putting up statues outside the stadium. However, CEO Venkatesham confirmed plans to establish the statue. He said he was preparing plans to build statues of some legends. It is a project that is still under development, but it has also started discussions with the fan advisory committee, it added. It's up to the fans to decide who gets the honor first.

Tottenham is one of the clubs that has banned the installation of player statues near the club's stadium. This is in contrast to the fact that the representative clubs of the English Premier League (EPL) remembered the legendary players with statues.

However, recent remarks by CEO Vinay Venkatesham have led to news that this could change. Venkatesham is in favor of questions about the installation of the statue. Currently working with the Fan Advisory Council to find the best long-term location for installing statues throughout the stadium. I hope this will allow us to decide where to install the first statue. The statue-making process takes quite a long time, but we have aspirations to make one. I'll leave it up to the fans to see who the statue will be."

If a statue is built in Tottenham, it is clear that legends who have achieved Tottenham's past glory, such as Bill Nicholson and Jimmy Greaves, will be mentioned first. But there is only one player who cannot be left out. It's Son Heung-min.

Son Heung-min, who played in 454 games and scored 173 goals and 101 assists for Tottenham, changed the club's history for 10 years after joining Tottenham in 2015. He became the team's first Asian captain, and both the EPL's top scorer and the Puskas are the first and only Asian players to date. It also erased Tottenham's dark history in the 2024-2025 season. As a captain this summer, he decided to finish beautifully by presenting the trophy in the Europa League (UEL), and left Tottenham.

Son Heung-min remained in the team even when all his teammates left for the championship, and when Harry Kane headed for Bayern Munich. Fans have also praised Son Heung-min for his dedication since his last win. Therefore, Son Heung-min is also expected to have a high priority if the statue is made.

There have already been public opinion on the production of statues. After winning the Europa League, several Tottenham fans produced and shared photos of Son Heung-min's statue. His teammate Hishalisson also urged the creation of the statue, tagging the club's SNS account with a picture of Son Heung-min's statue. It may not be long before everyone's dream of Son Heung-min remains in Tottenham forever.
