British media Express reported on the 4th (Korea time) 'Son Heung-min is unlikely to be able to play again. Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou admitted Son's chances of joining the club are slim, reports said.
Tottenham will play an away match against Brighton in the English Premier League (EPL) in 2024-2025 season at Amex Stadium in Brighton, England on the 7th.
Attention was focused on Son Heung-min's 'return' Son Heung-min left the Europa League (UEL) phase first round against Karabakh (Azerbaijan) on the 26th of last month due to an injury. He was uncomfortable touching his hamstring (back muscle of the thigh) from the beginning of the second half. Son Heung-min seemed to play with the pain. But in the end, he hesitated to sit down. 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. I sat on the ground and looked at the bench. Son Heung-min was replaced by Timo Werner in the 26th minute of the second half and retired to the bench. It didn't seem like a big injury at the time. 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.'
It looks more serious than expected. Son Heung-min was completely excluded from the EPL away game against Manchester United on the 30th of last month. He also did not appear in the second round of the UEL League phase against Ferencvaros at the Groupama Arena in Budapest, Hungary, on the 4th. He did not accompany Hungary on the expedition to recover.

The Korea Football Association decided on the 4th that Son Heung-min needs a rest due to his left thigh injury. In order to protect the players, we have finally decided to exclude the October call-up,' the statement said. Hong Hyun-seok (Minutes) was selected as a substitute for Son Heung-min.
