Son Heung-min (32) has a strong supporter.

Goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario (28), who has often spoken up for the team in the locker room, will join Tottenham's leadership group as a new member. It is expected to play a role in uniting the team by the side of captain Son Heung-min.

British media TBR Football reported on the 22nd (Korea time) 'Tottenham's star player has joined the leader group consisting of Son Heung-min, James Madison and Christian Romero since this summer' citing a YouTube broadcast by Alasdair Gold, a reporter familiar with Tottenham's situation.

Postecoglou has established a solid group of leaders in the squad since he took over as coach of the team last season. Son Heung-min was entrusted with the captain's armband, and Madison and Romero were appointed as vice-captain to lead the team with Son Heung-min. So far, these three captains have led the team without much difficulty. In particular, Son Heung-min has always been an example of other players in terms of skills and personality and has been greatly recognized by his teammates.

A new person has been added to this. Gold, a reporter familiar with Tottenham's situation, said on his YouTube channel that Vicario was recognized for his leadership by other colleagues in the locker room.



"I understand that Vicario has officially joined the team's leadership group since last summer," he said. "Since the past, Tottenham has always had a leadership group that encompasses all players. Harry Kane, Pierre-Emile Hoibier and Hugo Lloris were once a group. Now it's Son Heung-min, Madison, and Romero. And as far as I know, Vicario has officially joined as the fourth leader group member since the summer."

Gold then said "Vicario joined the leadership group because he was recognized by his colleagues in the locker room.

He says what he has to say very clearly, and the players listen to him. There is a big voice in the locker room and Postecoglou prefers those players"Vicario explained the reason for joining the leadership group.



After joining Tottenham last summer, Vicario immediately took over as the main goalkeeper and established himself as the representative goalkeeper of the EPL. Although this season is not off to a good start, it is gradually recovering the stability of last season.
