The captain of the South Korean national team and a talented striker with years of experience — Son Heung-min — has sparked great interest in the football world with his move to the USA.
As you know, he had a long career at the prestigious English club Tottenham, scored hundreds of goals, and earned the hearts of thousands of fans. Now, he has joined a new team — Los Angeles, representing the MLS championship in the United States.
His choice to join LAFC was no coincidence. According to Son, the decision is driven by great excitement, a clear goal, and major tasks he has set for himself.
“I’m extremely proud to join a club with big ambitions like Los Angeles. This is one of the most iconic and sports-driven cities in the world. There is a spirit of victory and a hunger for championships here. I came to write a new history,” Son said in his words.
He also stated that he’s always ready for new challenges and this time is no different. “I’m looking forward to this new chapter in MLS with great excitement. I’ll give my all for this club, this city, and these amazing fans. I came here with one goal — to win trophies,” said the Korean star footballer.
From his words, it’s clear that he is starting a new path not only on the field but in his heart as well. With a new environment, a new team, and new opportunities, he aims to impress once again.
For reference: 33-year-old Son Heung-min left Tottenham and signed a contract with Los Angeles valid until the end of 2027. There is also an option to extend the deal first to 2028, then to the summer of 2029.
Now, fans will be watching how Son performs in MLS, what results he achieves with his new team, and what influence he will have on football in the United States.
One thing is certain — a new chapter for Son has begun, and he’s fully committed to it.
