Son Heung-min
The English professional soccer Premier League secretariat praised Tottenham’s ‘captain’ Son Heung-min for his performance this season, calling it ‘amazing.’
On the 16th (Korean time), the EPL secretariat posted on its social networking (SNS) account, “Son Heung-min’s record in the last 21 EPL games is amazing,” along with a photo of Son Heung-min giving a thumbs up, along with “22 attack points in 21 games.” .
Son Heung-min was silent in the first and third rounds of the 2023-2024 EPL season, but scored 14 goals and 8 assists in 21 games thereafter.
Son Heung-min, who was the joint top scorer (23 goals) in the EPL in the 2022-2023 season, faltered for a while with 10 goals in the regular league last season, but is living up to the name of a ‘world-class goaltender’ by scoring 14 goals this season.
Son Heung-min, who is in his 9th season in the EPL, has succeeded in scoring double-digit scores for 8 consecutive seasons, and the 14 goals this season are Son Heung-min’s 3rd highest individual score in EPL history.

After scoring 23 goals in the 2023-2024 season and 17 goals in the 2020-2021 season, his score is tied with 14 goals in the 2016-2017 season.
Son Heung-min was unable to accumulate attack points until the opening three games of this season, but began accumulating attack points in earnest starting with a hat trick against Burnley in the fourth round in September last year.
Last December, in the 16th round against Newcastle, he performed a one-man show with 1 goal and 2 assists, exceeding double-digit scores with 10 league goals, and then missed the 21st and 23rd rounds due to being selected for the Asian Cup.
Son Heung-min, who returned to his team, played a big role with 2 goals and 3 assists in the last 4 games, achieving ’21 EPL games and 22 attack points’, ranking tied for 5th place in the regular league scoring list.He is 4 goals behind leading scorer Erling Holland (Man City, 18 goals).
Although Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), who was ‘the best friend of the soul’, has left, Son Heung-min continues to play a key role in the team’s attack, switching between a flank attack and a front-line striker.
Son Heung-min, who scored 159 goals in Tottenham official matches and tied for 5th place on Tottenham’s all-time scoring list with Cliff Jones, who played in the 1960s, will rise to 5th place alone when he scores a goal in the 29th round of the EPL against Fulham in the early morning of the 17th. 토토사이트
