Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min was spotted taking care of Yang Min-hyuk, who recently joined the team.
Tottenham released a training video on the team's SNS on the 7th (Korea Standard Time).
The video showed Son Heung-min and Yang Min-hyuk exercising indoors together. Son Heung-min and Yang Min-hyuk sat side by side and engaged in training. Son talked to Yang Min-hyuk during the training and showed intimacy by stroking his head.
Yang is considered a promising player who will lead the Korean national soccer team. Since his debut with Gangwon FC last season, he scored 12 goals and had six assists in 38 games. Although he was only born in 2006, he was the core of Gangwon's offense. In recognition of his performance, he won the K League 1 Best 11 and the Young Player award.
The team that recognized Yang's talent early on was Tottenham. During the last season, they successfully recruited Yang. Yang was originally scheduled to move to London in January, but joined in December earlier than planned at Tottenham's request.
On Yang's joining, Son Heung-min said, "I can't help him like a father. There must be some situations that he has to deal with on his own. But I will try to help him both inside and outside the stadium. I hope he can show great soccer and talent to the club. I want to see him play for our team as soon as possible."
After joining Tottenham, Yang Min-hyuk quickly adapted. In the photo released by Tottenham on the 21st of last month, Yang Min-hyuk was shown performing light training at the team's training facility. Yang Min-hyuk also jumped in front of Son Heung-min.
"BBC" said, "Yang Min-hyuk has already stayed in London for two weeks, stayed with his agent at Tottenham Training Center, took English classes, and received a physical fitness program prepared by the new club." "But it is questionable whether Yang Min-hyuk will be able to adapt to the harsh environment of English soccer."
Yang Min-hyuk has a big task to leap to the level of the Premier League in Korean soccer, he said. "Yang Min-hyuk is not the first Korean player to enter the Premier League, but he is the first teenager to leave the league and choose English football with Brentford Kim Ji-soo."
Meanwhile, attention is focusing on the timing of Yang's debut. Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou told a news conference ahead of the match against Newcastle United, "Yang is still very young. He is from the opposite side of the world. The level of competition is completely different from what he will face here in the U.K." 메이저사이트
We will need a little more time before our debut. Postecoglou added, "We will give Yang some time to adjust. Son's help will be helpful. We just try to settle him down quickly and give him a chance to adapt. There are no special plans. We just wait and see how he adjusts."
