On the morning of April 22, Son was absent in Tottenham's 1-2 defeat to Nottingham Forest in round 33 of the Premier League. In the previous two matches against Wolves and Frankfurt, the Korean striker also did not play due to injury.

"Son has had problems for a long time," said coach Postecoglou. "His injury situation has not improved and has even worsened. This is a good time for Son to rest."

Coach Postecoglou admitted he wanted to keep Son in top form for the Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt, which is also the only arena where Spurs have a chance of winning the title this season.

Before retiring, Son had 7 goals and 9 assists in the Premier League this season. However, he has not scored a goal for Spurs in over a month. The last time Son "scored" for the London club was on March 9, in the match against Bournemouth.

Son’s performance this season has caused controversy on social media. Many fans are unhappy and want to strip the striker of the captaincy. Some fans believe that Son’s speed is not as good as before. At the same time, having to work too much makes Son lack innovation and appear exhausted in the final stages of the match.

Son Heung-min's injury video draws attention The lingering effects of Son Heung-min's dislocated finger have been captured up close in a new video, prompting fans to express concern over the pain he is enduring.
