Son Heung-min Set to Join LAFC After Decade at Tottenham
Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min has reportedly agreed to join Los Angeles FC.
The 33-year-old South Korean forward informed Spurs of his desire to leave, and the North London club has respected the request from their long-serving star. According to reports, LAFC is prepared to spend around £15 million to secure Son’s signature.
A delegation from the MLS club has already travelled to South Korea, where Tottenham are currently on a pre-season tour. The London side is scheduled to face Newcastle United in a friendly today, and sources suggest the deal could be finalized immediately after the match.
Son Heung-min has been a talismanic figure for Spurs since joining in 2015. Over the course of 10 seasons, he has made an impressive 454 appearances and scored 173 goals for the club — cementing his place as one of the Premier League’s most prolific forwards.
