Son Heung-min is confirmed to return. October 19 against West Ham. 英 Media 'SON, Coming Back'
Son Heung-min (32, Tottenham)'s return date has been confirmed. It is the EPL's eighth round match against West Ham at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, at 8:30 p.m. on October 19 (Korean time).

Tottenham newsletter The Voice Hotspur, as well as the British Evening Standard, set a return date for Son Heung-min, who missed not only three official matches but also the Korean national team's A match. On the 19th, he nailed the match against West Ham.

Son Heung-min suffered a left hamstring injury against Karabakh in the UEFA Europa League on the 27th of last month.

It was not a serious injury, but the area of the injury was not good. Hamstring injuries are not easy to cure. It's best to rest, but I can't. He missed three consecutive games and failed to join the Korean national team.

Coach Enze Postecoglou said, `Son Heung-min's injury is not serious. He said he was doing his best to return to the club, but he eventually missed the match against Manchester United and Brighton.

Tottenham, without Son Heung-min, won 3-0 against Manchester United. Manchester United played the worst. Son Heung-min had a gap, but Manchester United's defense was not very good. In the end, Son's absence appeared in Brighton.

Back-to-back goals from Brennan Johnson and James Maddison gave them a 2-0 lead in the first half. However, as the defensive organization and overall team chemistry collapsed in the second half, he donated three consecutive goals and eventually suffered a painful 2-3 come-from-behind defeat.

This season, Son has two goals and two assists in five Premier League games.

Still Tottenham's ace leader, but there are ups and downs. However, many new players have come in as a whole for Tottenham, and they are matching the organization of the first and second lines.

However, the criticism of the local media has gone too far. He said that Son Heung-min should get rid of the idea that he will definitely take the main role, and that Brennan Johnson and Dominic Solanke are the new offensive leaders, treating Son Heung-min as a 'past player'.
