Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min has told The Mirror that he thinks the club have the best stadium in the world.

After a long, drawn-out affair, Spurs are now finally set to move into their new stadium, with the midweek clash against Crystal Palace set to be their first game there.

Tottenham’s Under-18’s beat Southampton there last weekend, before a Spurs legends side lost to a similarly glittering Inter Milan team on Saturday.

In midweek though, it’s the turn of the Tottenham first team, finally leaving Wembley almost seven months after they had originally intended.

Almost everybody is raving about Tottenham’s new stadium, hailing it as one of the most impressive new arenas in the game, and forward Son is clearly impressed too.

Son trained at the new home on Thursday, and has now claims that Tottenham now have the best stadium in the world – seemingly better than the Camp Nou or the Bernabeu in Son’s mind.

Son went further though, adding that Spurs also have the best training ground in the world and the best manager in the world, firing a warning to his teammates that they must now step up and make the most of the situation.

“We have the best training ground in the world. We have the best stadium in the world. It’s also true we have the best manager in the world,” said Son. “Everything is now ready to compare to anything. It’s now very important that the players are serious and take the chance.”

“It’s simple. The answer is now the players – how they perform, how seriously they take things. I am looking to the future and winning something with this new stadium and unbelievable club,” he added.
