The legendary former captain who led the Europa League to victory announced in August that he was leaving the team during a summer tour in Korea. He played his last game in a Tottenham uniform while Korean fans watched at the sold-out Seoul World Cup Stadium. Afterwards, Son Heung-min went straight to LA FC and scored an impressive nine goals in 10 games, but was eliminated in the playoffs after losing to Vancouver. Now I'll take the opportunity to go back to London against Slavia and say goodbye to the fans. Son will have a chance to say hello in person before the game.
Tottenham is even preparing a special gift for Son Heung-min. It's a mural. Earlier, Tottenham's legendary striker Harry Kane received a mural as a gift. Son Heung-min is also a legend of Tottenham, and a mural gift will be presented. The club has begun mural work on Tottenham High Road in cooperation with the Fan Advisory Committee. It is scheduled to be completed by December 9th. This is to commemorate Son Heung-min's legacy in North London. The design was chosen by Son himself and produced by the Murwals, the team that painted the murals of Harry Kane and Redley King.

Son Heung-min finished his trip with Tottenham this summer. The pre-season friendly match against Newcastle at the Seoul World Cup Stadium in August was Son Heung-min's last game at Tottenham. Prior to the game, Son Heung-min announced that he would leave Tottenham, took off his Tottenham uniform and moved to LA FC.
It was a decision that surprised everyone. Son Heung-min became Asia's first EPL scorer by winning a legend representing Tottenham for the past decade and an EPL golden boot in the 2021-2022 season, and was appointed as a captain for Tottenham and became the first Asian EPL club captain. 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 rose to the top of the Europa League in the 2024-2025 season, cutting off Tottenham's military officer and ending his career as a true legend.
There was only one regret. It was a pity that he could not say goodbye in front of Tottenham fans. In the interview, he said, `I don't know if the opportunity will come, but personally, I hope there will be an opportunity to say goodbye at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.'
