Seoul, South Korea (AP) – Next day Announces imminent departure from Tottenham Ten years after the club, his son Heung Min was emotionally farewelled by his teammates, Newcastle players and nearly 65,000 fans on Sunday at Seoul World Cup Stadium.
Preseason friendliness in Korea between Premier League teams ended 1-1, with High Points being the son’s second half exit in his final match at Tottenham. The 33-year-old captain was surrounded by a set of both players before finally sitting on the bench in tears.
“After the first walk, the teammates gathered together and he was emotional,” said Tottenham coach Thomas Frank. “It was more of the same thing in the changing room. I just said a few things, but it’s about Sony and he said a few things, so there wasn’t that much. It’s beautiful.”
Newcastle manager Eddie Hau also paid tribute to Korea.
“This response was instinctive from my players. I think it speaks volume about him,” Howe said. “I think he’s considered one of the great Premier League players in the game. That’s not just the talent he has, but the way he’s carried himself over the years.”
Son, linked to travel to Los Angeles FCscored 173 goals in 454 games for the London Club, but was unable to find a target when Frank said it was his final appearance.
However, the celebration of his trademark “Camera” goal was borrowed by Brennan Johnson, who placed Tottenham first four minutes later on in bass from the edge of the region.
Harvey Burns levelled towards Newcastle seven minutes before the break, setting the fire from the left and cutting the house strong into a house.
Madison was injured
With less than 10 minutes left, Tottenham’s James Madison stretched after being injured.
“I’m sure he was on the same knee he was injured previously,” Frank said.
