'Captain' Attention is focusing on Son Heung-min (Tottenham)'s physical condition.

The Athletic reported on the 27th (Korea time) 'Son Heung-min's body was in trouble ahead of Tottenham's away match against Manchester United'

Tottenham, led by head coach Enze Postecoglou, won the first Europa League match of the 2024-2025 season against Karabakh 3-0 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 27th. Tottenham faced a crisis with Radu Dragusin's exit just seven minutes into the match. However, Brennan Johnson, Pape Sarr and Dominic Solanke tied back-to-back scores to secure the victory.

There was a separate problem. It is the injury of ace Son Heung-min. Son Heung-min, who started the day, was replaced by Timo Werner in the 26th minute of the second half and retired to the bench. Son Heung-min felt an abnormality in his physical condition shortly after attempting a right-footed strong shot in the 23rd minute of the second half. He sat on the ground and looked at the bench. In the end, he couldn't run anymore and was replaced.

Son Heung-min is playing between the South Korean national soccer team and the club team. He played three games in a week from the 15th after the A-match in September. Ahead of the match, he said there were too many games, adding "We're not robots."

Tottenham will play an away match against Manchester United in the English Premier League (EPL) in 2024-2025 season on the 30th. The Athletic reported that Postecoglou will decide whether Son Heung-min will join or not. Postecoglou said "The players are quite tired. Everything is fine except Son Heung-min. I don't think Son Heung-min is that bad either. First of all, I want to train. I'm going to see how the training goes and decide. We have another day to give him every chance.'

According to the media, Son Heung-min has never been out due to an injury except for a facial injury in November 2022. He also has two goals and two assists in five league games this season.
