Goodbye, Tottenham! The former Premier League Golden Boot announced his departure, 173 goals and 101 assists in 454 games in ten years, 173 goals and 101 assists, 1 championship

If there is no Europa League champion, Tottenham Hotspur in the 2014-15 season will be useless! In 38 rounds of the league, they lost 22 games, won only 11 games, and scored 38 points, and ranked fourth from the bottom in the Premier League standings, and ranked only higher than three relegated teams. How can they be embarrassed to be ranked BIG6 in the Premier League?

Despite qualifying for the Champions League, which is not even Manchester United has, which means considerable economic income and more recruitment budgets; despite winning the UEFA Cup and ending the seventeen-year championship drought, Postkoglu was still fired.

new coach, 51-year-old former Brentford Thomas Frank, took office. Tottenham Hotspur signed players in an orderly manner in the summer window. Judging from his performance in leading the team in the preseason, Frick quickly won the trust of fans. In 4 friendly matches in July, Tottenham won 2 wins and 2 draws unbeaten. Frick's 4231 formation is getting better, Richarlison or Terr at the center position, and new player Kudus plays the right forward. In the 1-0 victory over the Premier League championship, Frank's team's offense and defense were both amazing.

The revival of a great team requires continuous replenishment of fresh blood and at the same time eliminate some veterans, even for merit.

Without the decisiveness of not renewing Messi's contract in 2021, can Barcelona beat Real Madrid to win the domestic three championships last season? Without Mbappe's departure, could Paris Saint-Germain win the Champions League title historic last season? Therefore, Manchester City will not renew the contract with De Bruyne, and Bayern will not renew the contract with Mueller. Even if it experiences temporary pain, the team must do this.

These merits may have reached the twilight years of their careers or have passed their peak periods, and have long been a drag on the team. Staying behind can only continue to drag down the team; leaving and giving way to a more suitable newcomer is a healthy development.

In the recent warm-up match, Tottenham scorer Son Heung-min was on the bench. In fact, as early as last season, Tottenham had already released the signal that Son Heung-min left the team.

Son Heung-min is still the team's top scorer in Tottenham, just like Messi in his last few years at Barcelona and Ronaldo who entered the palace for the second time. The entire offensive end revolved around him. Some key battles and tough battles, once he was silent, the entire team collapsed.

And in the 2024-25 season, Son Heung-min is no longer Tottenham's number one scorer. 30 Premier League games, 24 starts, 7 goals and 9 assists, which is the data of an ordinary striker. Tottenham's top scorer is Johnson, who has 11 goals in 33 Premier League games.

It's time to say goodbye!

At 19:00 on August 3, Tottenham will play against Newcastle in a friendly match. At the pre-match press conference, Son Heung-min said: "I want to share a message. I have decided to leave the club this summer. I am grateful that the club respects my decision very much."

33-year-old Son Heung-min, whose contract with Tottenham expires next summer, is currently receiving a maximum salary of Tottenham (a weekly salary of 190,000 pounds). According to reporter Tom Bogert, Los Angeles FC will sign Son Heung-min. Previously, it was reported that after Son Heung-min left the team, Tottenham may chase Brazilian winger Rodrigo in Real Madrid and give players the maximum salary in the team.

Son Heung-min joined Tottenham Hotspur in 2015. In the past ten years, he played in 454 games, contributed 173 goals and 101 assists, won an Europa League championship, and won the Premier League Golden Boot in the 2021-22 season.
