Tottenham fans fume as ‘awful’ leaked image of Son Heung-min emerges

Tottenham supporters have endured a largely frustrating campaign and are already unhappy about a development ahead of next season.

Ange Postecoglou‘s side could make all the pain of a dismal domestic campaign go away by beating Manchester United in the UEFA Europa League final on Wednesday (21 May).

However, as is so often the case with Spurs, despite a European final to look forward to, there are still some unhappy supporters.

Son Heung-min pictured in new Tottenham kit

Tottenham supporters were livid when their home kit for the 2025/26 season was leaked earlier this year, with some even calling for the Lilywhites to cut ties with Nike.

Footy Headlines have now shared an image (15 May) of Spurs skipper Son Heung-min modelling the rumoured jersey, which features a centralised crest.

And once again, it has not gone down well with the majority of the Tottenham fanbase.

Tottenham fans already unhappy ahead of next season

The shirt is certainly very different from what we have seen from Nike in recent years.

It is safe to say that supporters are not impressed, as it is a riskier attempt at a Spurs shirt than the American sportswear brand’s usual efforts.

Ultimately, though, what matters is performances on the pitch, and if they perform well at the start of the campaign and it looks like an encouraging season, maybe some fans will change their minds and come to appreciate the kit and perhaps even buy it.

That will be Daniel Levy‘s hope as more sales mean more money for Tottenham, and the chairman is all about making money for the Lilywhites, even if that cash isn’t always spent in the transfer market.

The 62-year-old is constantly lining up NFL matches, concerts, and boxing matches to increase revenue from the spectacular Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but it does not reflect on the pitch at the moment.

Levy needs to start ensuring that the money is put back into the playing squad, so that Tottenham can thrive in elite competitions, like the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League, rather than resorting to second-rate trophies to end their 17-year drought.
