Son Heung-min (32, Tottenham), who was unable to play for a while due to a hamstring (muscle behind the thigh) injury and was unable to join Hong Myung-bo, announced his return.
On the 13th, Son Heung-min posted a photo on his Instagram with the caption ‘Back soon’.
The released photo shows Son Heung-min sitting at the training ground in training clothes and sneakers. This is interpreted as an indication that he, who was unable to play in the game due to injury, will return.
Son Heung-min suffered a hamstring injury in the first match of the UEFA Europa League against Karabakh (Azerbaijan) on the 27th of last month and was unable to play.
They also failed to join the 3rd and 4th games of Group B of the 2026 North and Central America World Cup Asia 3rd qualifying round. Initially, coach Hong Myung-bo included Son Heung-min in the list, but after discussions with Son Heung-min and Tottenham, he selected Hong Hyun-seok (Mainz) as a replacement.
Son Heung-min, who announced his return directly, is likely to return in about three weeks with the Premier League (EPL) match against West Ham on the 19th. Tottenham has recorded 3 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses through the 7th round, ranking only in 9th place (10 points).
With Son Heung-min missing, the Korean national team won 2-0 in the away game against Jordan on the 10th in the third round of the North and Central America World Cup third qualifying round. They are leading Group B (7 points) and will play the 4th home game against Iraq at Mir Stadium in Yongin at 8 PM on the 15th.
