Asserting that he is prepared to do whatever the team need, Son Heung-min has stated that he would not mind playing on the left or as a number nine.
Due to Richarlison’s injury issues, Son led Tottenham’s line for the most of the season.
The captain of Spurs performed admirably in multiple games as a center forward, culminating the season with 27 goal contributions (17 goals and 10 assists) in 35 league games.
The 31-year-old, though, occasionally found it difficult to play with his back to goal and was a passenger, especially when Tottenham faced a low block.
Which position Son will play in the upcoming campaign is still unknown; recent reports indicate that Tottenham is looking to add a center-forward this summer, and Richarlison’s future at the team is also under scrutiny (ESPN).
Heung-min Son will represent Tottenham wherever.
Son, however, emphasized that he truly doesn’t have a favorite between the two positions.
The captain of the Spurs responded, “I don’t mind,” to a question about where he would prefer to play next season on Football.London. (laughs) The gaffer has the final call, but I’ll be prepared for any role. I will thus play goalie if he assigns me that position.

Son will undoubtedly be Postecoglou’s primary left-wing player in the upcoming season. The South Korean may not have the physical presence to occupy the center of defense when playing as a number nine, despite being one of the best finishers in the game and an excellent player on the defensive shoulder.
