Is Kane leaving? No problem. The Tottenham project seemed to end with the departure of the club legend this summer to Munich, but where the majority of fans saw a problem, Heung-Min Son saw an opportunity that he is not letting go.
The South Korean has become the absolute leader of the North London team on the pitch. It is not only about his influence on the game of Ange Postecoglu’s team, but also at a numerical level he has assumed a completely decisive role in leading the ‘Spurs’ to be fighting for everything in the Premier League.
Tottenham lost 32 goals and five assists in all competitions with the departure of Harry Kane. Figures that seemed difficult to match by any player in the squad, even more so if this player tends to start from the side and does not act as a center forward. But Son was up for the challenge.
In just 18 games in the top English competition, the South Korean has already scored 11 goals and four assists, numbers that only Haaland and Salah have more goals. To put it in context, Son himself scored 10 goals and provided six assists in 36 Premier games last season. The step forward that the winger has taken is more than evident.
Numbers that will continue to grow, because the attacker knows how to perfectly take advantage of the freedom that Postecoglu has given him, Richarlison’s dirty work getting away from defenders and opening spaces, and his good relationship with Kulusevski to combine. Yes, Tottenham has a new star.
