Son’s 173 Tottenham goals rank fifth all-time, and his 127 often pinpoint league strikes see him slide into the Premier League’s top 20 leading marksman. His legendary status was secured via a glorious finale in Bilbao, with Spurs’ Europa League success allowing Son to ride off into the Californian sunset, boasting a sense of fulfilment.

Thomas Frank predicted Heung-min Son would have “a beautiful ending to a beautiful story” - and so it proved. Son signed off from ten years at Tottenham on Sunday with an emotional friendly in front of 64,773 adoring fans in South Korea.

Son Heung-min, who spent 10 seasons with Tottenham Hotspur and stars for the South Korean national team, has a deal in place to join Los Angeles FC, according to multiple reports.
