Tottenham Hotspur had their Amazon Prime documentary series come out last year, and now it’s the turn of Son Heung-min.
The Spurs attacker was of course involved in that series, but a documentary charting Son’s rise from South Korean prodigy to North London hero has now emerged, called ‘Sonsational’.
Thierry Henry made an appearance, there were interviews with Son’s father and brother, Hamburg fans waxed lyrical about Son – an all-round positive piece about the attacker.
There was one moment which may have been a huge surprise though, and that was when Son was approached by an Arsenal fan in Hampstead.
The young supporter’s father admitted that his son thought the Player of the Year award should go to Son, despite the rivalry between the two sides.
Son asked who the boy supports, and when told that it was bitter rivals Arsenal, the Tottenham ace had to admit that the revelation was ‘not good’.
“Oh that’s not good, that’s not good for me – but it’s okay!” said Son, making it clear that his allegiance is with Tottenham despite receiving such support from an Arsenal fan.
Son then acknowledged that this may have been an even bigger compliment than if it came from a Spurs fan, as Arsenal fans aren’t exactly known for praising Tottenham players!
Son has been a menace against Arsenal in recent times, bagging two goals and four assists in his last five league outings agains the Gunners.
That young fan may end up being sick of Son if that form continues, but the moment with the young Arsenal fan just goes to show how popular he is – even away from Tottenham.
