Son Heung-min is constantly on the minds of Tottenham Hotspur fans across the globe.

The winger created his own legacy in N17 that saw him stay with the Lilywhites for a decade, as he left in the best way possible.

Son always dreamed of winning a major trophy for Spurs, and did so when helping the club lift the Europa League trophy just over a year ago.

The 33-year-old then realised it was the best time to move away from North London in search of a new chapter.

The South Korea international made a move to MLS side Los Angeles FC and has even been linked with a move back to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium since.

However, Tottenham are moving fast with their transfer business for Roberto De Zerbi this summer, and Son knows exactly what's going on.

Son has been linked with a move back to Tottenham this summer, which follows speculation of a return from last winter.

The forward has shown he is still capable in front of goal, and already has 14 goals to his record in 34 games for LAFC.

However, Spurs are looking towards the future, and have confirmed their next signing of the summer for De Zerbi.

Tottenham officially announced the arrival of Sandro Tonali from Newcastle on Monday, as Son reacted to the post.

The Spurs legend liked the Instagram post, as Tonali has now officially put pen to paper over a long-term deal.

Tottenham spent a club-record fee of £100million for the midfielder, according to Sky Sports.

The deal follows additions of Andrew Robertson, Marcos Senesi, Jan Paul Van Hecke, Martin Dubravka and Mateus Fernandes, as Spurs' spend for the summer is already sky high.

What Tottenham's new transfer approach tells us

Tottenham have now spent around £240m on signings this summer, as well as bringing in free transfers.

The club don't want to mess around, and are making sure De Zerbi has new faces

However, this isn't the Spurs we are used to, as Daniel Levy was always keen to wait until the final day of transfer windows so that he could maximise a deal from a financial standpoint.

It seems like Joe Lewis doesn't have the same hesitant approach, which clearly follows his demands with head coaches.
