Lucas Beribal, a former teammate of Son Heung-min (LA FC) during his time at Tottenham, is drawing attention by pointing out that Sonny is the most famous person among his acquaintances in his mobile phone contacts.
On the 12th (local time), the secretariat of the English Premier League (EPL) released a content asking and answering the players currently active in the EPL and 'most famous acquaintance'.
Various names poured out. First, Chelsea captain Reece James picked England's F1 superstar Lewis Hamilton without much thought. James and Hamilton are of the same English nationality. German striker Kai Havertz (Arnall) also mentioned former NBA star Duck Nowitzki of the same nationality. "I'm retired now, but I used to be really famous in America."
Bernardu Silva and Ruben Dias (Manchester City) chose Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nasr) and Joe Roden (Liz) from the same Portugal and Gareth Bale (retired) from the same Wales.

In the trend of selecting the same star of nationality as a number of players, the choice of Beribal from Sweden was Son Heung-min, a South Korean and former Tottenham captain. Veribal said "Maybe, Sonny," and when the host asked back "Maybe?" replied "Yes."
Beribal rejected Barcelona's offer from Jurgorden, Sweden in 2024 and moved to Tottenham, where he built unforgettable memories with Son Heung-min during the 2024-2025 season. Son Heung-min sent a congratulatory text as soon as Beribal's transfer to Tottenham was confirmed, and reportedly helped him adapt quickly with his unique affinity from the first day of training.
After Son Heung-min's departure was confirmed last summer, Veribal said "Sonny, thank you for everything. I'm thankful that I learned a lot from you through my first season here. Thanks to your passion for this club, I can see what it means to play for Tottenham from day one. It will be special to all of us to lift the trophy together. Son Heung-min, who led us to this position, will be even more special to you. Thank you, Legend," he sent a touching farewell message.
Beribal could have picked Zlatan Ibrahimovic or another football legend of the same nationality, but Son Heung-min was still the best superstar in his mind.
