Thu Apr 17 20:30:00 UTC 2025: ## Son Heung-Min Out for Tottenham’s Crucial Europa League Clash
**Frankfurt, Germany** – Tottenham Hotspur will be without captain Son Heung-Min for their crucial Europa League quarter-final second leg against Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday. Manager Ange Postecoglou confirmed the South Korean international will miss the match due to a persistent foot injury.
Son did not travel with the squad to Germany after already sitting out Sunday’s 4-2 Premier League defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers. Postecoglou stated that the injury has become too painful for Son to play, despite the player’s efforts to recover.
The absence of their star forward is a significant blow to Tottenham, who are already facing intense pressure after a disappointing Premier League season. The club currently sits 15th in the table with 17 defeats, and their hopes for a successful season now rest heavily on winning the Europa League, ending a 17-year trophy drought. The first leg ended in a 1-1 draw at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. A win in Frankfurt is crucial for Tottenham to advance to the semi-finals.
