Son Heung-min to finalise Tottenham exit as Spurs announce striker transfer

Son Heung-min is on his way to Los Angeles before completing a £15m switch to Major League Soccer after deciding to end his decade-long stay at Tottenham Hotspur.

The South Korea star, 33, last week confirmed that he would be leaving north London to pursue a new opportunity having scored 173 goals in 454 games while finally landing silverware by winning the Europa League in his final competitive game for the club.

Son was given a fitting farewell by appearing for Spurs in a friendly against Newcastle in front of his home fans in Seoul and, fighting back the tears, he said after the game: “This is the time to say goodbye to everyone. Spurs will always be in my heart. I will cheer them on as a family member.”

He is expected to sign a two-year deal with Los Angeles FC and will link-up with another former Spurs star in goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

Son’s departure follows confirmation that Will Lankshear has been sent on loan to Oxford United for the season. The young striker featured in half a dozen games early last season, starting League phase fixtures in their European run, and then went to West Brom on loan.

“This is a really exciting opportunity for me to be joining a great club,” said Lankshear. “I learned so much last season in the first team at Tottenham and West Brom and I’m ready to now kick on with Oxford United.

“I feel like this is the right place for me to be. I love nothing more than scoring goals. I want to do my best to bring as many as I can this season.”

New Spurs boss Thomas Frank is bringing his squad to Bavaria for a friendly against Bayern Munich on Thursday evening and will hope to integrate Joao Palhinha, who has been signed on loan from the Bundesliga champions, ahead of next week’s UEFA Super Cup versus Paris Saint-Germain.

But Frank is waiting for an update on the condition of James Maddison, who was stretchered off after hurting a knee in the 1-1 draw with Newcastle.

“I think sometimes in life and football things can be both beautiful and brutal – that’s what we got today,” the head coach said in Seoul. “It looks like with Madders a bad injury, and then on the other side unbelievable scenes for Son from his teammates and the respect from the Newcastle players.”
