The Tottenham Hotspur star is among the greatest goal scorers for South Korea in international games
Heung-min Son is one of the greatest South Korean footballers to have played at an elite level.
Considered not just one of the best forwards around right now, but also one of the best Asian footballers of all time, Son is known for his explosive burst of speed, excellent passing skills and ability to score goals with both feet.
He made his first senior appearance for South Korea in December 2010 at the age of just 18 and his first goal came in January 2011 against India in the AFC Asian Cup 2011.
Since then, he has gone on to become one of the greatest goal scorers for South Korea.
