Mon Apr 21 18:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Son Heung-min’s Injury: A Chance for Redemption?

**London, England** – Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min is sidelined with a foot injury, but hopes remain high for his return in time for the Europa League semi-final. The South Korean forward is targeting a comeback on May 2nd for the first leg against Bodø/Glimt.

This means Son will miss the remainder of Tottenham’s Premier League fixtures in April, including crucial matches against Liverpool. Manager Ange Postecoglou confirmed the severity of the injury, stating that Son has been struggling with the issue for an extended period, requiring rest.

This latest injury is the third in seven months, raising concerns about Son’s workload. While he has played in 43 matches this season, totaling 3060 minutes, his minutes per game have decreased significantly compared to last season (71.2 minutes vs 82.3 minutes). Some analysts attribute this to Postecoglou’s attacking style, placing extra pressure on Son, who has also been contributing significantly to defense. His recent performance shows a decline in scoring, with his last league goal dating back to January.

Despite criticism about his age and diminishing role within the team, manager Postecoglou remains supportive, emphasizing that this break is crucial for Son’s recovery. Tottenham News also expressed optimism, highlighting Son’s importance to the team in crucial moments and expecting him to be a significant asset upon his return. All eyes are on Son’s recovery, hoping for another one of his miraculous comebacks to save Tottenham’s season.
