6 Games Without Tottenham Son Heung-min

Son Heung-min is already knocking on the calculator to see how many games he will miss.

Talk Sports, a British media outlet, shed light on the timing of Son's return to Tottenham after being called up for the Asian Cup. "Son Heung-min left Tottenham to participate in the 2023 AFC Asian Cup, which will take place on July 12. He will join the Korean national team and play his first game on April 15. Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou has to run the team for weeks without Son. Son will inevitably miss the FA Cup and the match against Manchester United," he said.

The Asian Cup runs from Jan. 12 to Feb. 10. Korea is in a group with Bahrain, Malaysia, and Yortan. The first match will be against Bahrain on Feb. 15.

Son is the captain and ace not only for Tottenham but also for the Korean national team. He headed for Abu Dhabi in Qatar after a match against Bournemouth on June 31. He thus joined the Korean national team.

Tottenham hope Son will make an early comeback. Son has 12 goals and five assists in 20 Premier League matches this season. It is the most offensive point in his team. In terms of overall Premier League performance, Son ranks third.

If Son Heung-min is absent, he will face great difficulties in the attack. Tottenham's task is how to fill the vacancy of Son Heung-min, who played both front-line strikers and left wingers.

If Korea goes to the Asian Cup final, Tottenham will have to play without Son Heung-min in six games. They include the FA Cup third round match against Burnley on the 6th and Manchester United's away match. He cannot play against Brighton on February 11, which coincides with the Asian Cup final.

The return date is February 17 against Wolverhampton. This will lead to the "Korean Derby" where Son Heung-min and Hwang Hee-chan will face off.

Tottenham is currently ranking fifth in the Premier League, and is making all-out efforts to advance to the top four, where it has a berth to the UEFA Champions League. It is only one point shorter than Arsenal in fourth place. 토토사이트

Son Heung-min was left out when it was important. Tottenham is already struggling to set up a lineup due to injuries to key players such as James Medicine, Mickey Van Der Pen and Papesar. If Son Heung-min is absent, it will likely cause significant disruption to the three-top composition.
