Tottenham organise Son Heung-min return, private Hotspur Way visit planned – Here’s when it’ll happen
Tottenham plan to invite legend Son Heung-min back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in December, most likely for their Premier League clash versus Liverpool.
Son departed Tottenham after almost a decade in North London to reunite with Hugo Lloris at LAFC.
His last ever game was played in South Korea during Spurs’ pre-season game against Newcastle United where he was substituted to a standing ovation.
However, the former Tottenham star could be back in North London sooner than fans think.
Son Heung-min to be honoured at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Son recently stated he’d like to return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to bid farewell to the fans on home turf.
While there was not a dry eye in the house in South Korea, the destination meant that thousands of fans were unable to attend the game.
It has now been revealed that Tottenham are preparing to invite Son back to London for a December home game, according to Han June via X on 25 November.
It is believed that the Lilywhites are planning a pre-match ceremony, half-time tribute and a special gift to honour his legendary decade in North London.
There will also be a private visit to Hotspur Way to meet and greet his former staff.
Son netted a last-minute free kick to keep LAFC alive in the MLS playoffs. However, his side later lost to Vancouver on penalties, which marked the end of their season.
With the South Korean not back in action until February and Tottenham set to welcome him in December, the earliest date fans can expect to see their beloved left winger will be on 6 December when Spurs hosts Brentford in the Premier League.
However, the report claims that an appearance on 20 December, for the clash with Liverpool, is most likely.
Tottenham are still missing Son Heung-min
Tottenham are a team who have lacked goals and creativity in the Premier League this season.
- Spurs have netted 20 goals in the league thus far
- The Lilywhites have created 20 big chances, the eighth fewest in the league
While Wilson Odobert has shown promise these past couple of weeks, Spurs still lack an experienced left winger.
Tottenham are eyeing Antonie Semenyo to take over on the left wing, but with several Premier League sides interested, it’s doubtful they will sign him.
Given the circumstances, there will likely be some extra appreciation in the air when Son returns to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
