The Tottenham Hotspur duo were in action earlier today for their nations.

Tottenham ace Heung-Min Son spoke exclusively to Colombia AS, and raved about the quality of his teammate Davinson Sanchez, suggesting that the centre-back has had an ‘amazing’ season so far.

The two Spurs players squared off against one another earlier today when South Korea played Colombia in a friendly, with Son’s side running out as 2-1 winners.

Sanchez, 22, joined Tottenham from Ajax in the summer of 2017, for a fee believed to be worth £42 million, whilst Son will have been with the north London outfit for four years this summer.

The Colombia international has really impressed for Spurs when given a chance to shine by Mauricio Pochettino, and Son told reporters just how impressed he has been with the centre-back, as quoted by Colombia AS:

“Davinson… I’m really, really good friends with him. I’m happy for him, he’s been playing an amazing season. Playing for Colombia, I’m happy for him.”

Tottenham have a real fight on their hands in the race for a top four finish this season, and if they are to have any chance whatsoever of doing just that, both Sanchez and Son will have to be at their very best between now and May.
