A Glorious Farewell to Tottenham’s Shining Star
After a decade of dazzling fans in north London, Son Heung-min has officially bid farewell to Tottenham Hotspur, closing a remarkable chapter in the club’s modern history. From wonder goals to heartwarming gestures, from the Bundesliga to becoming a Premier League Golden Boot winner, Son's legacy at Spurs is nothing short of extraordinary.
A Decade of Dedication
Kevin Wimmer, a former Spurs teammate and close friend, summed it up perfectly:
“I’m not sure we’ll see another Sonny at Tottenham. To stay at a club like Spurs for 10 years in today’s football world is a very special achievement.”
Arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 for a then-record fee for an Asian player, reported at £22.5 million, Son was just 23 years old. Now 33, he departs after 454 appearances, 173 goals, and having finally lifted a major trophy in Spurs colours—the Europa League, ending the club’s 17-year silverware drought.
