Heung-min Son | Scout Report

Analysis & Style of play

Heung-min Son has earned his reputation as the greatest Asian footballer of all time. His great career at Tottenham Hotspur and being the leader of the South Korean national team have made him worthy of it.

He is a world-class technically gifted player, performing every move at great speed. He is an incisive player, always looking for the goal and very difficult for the opponent to predict. He relies on his weak foot in many of his runs and to shoot.

The verticality with which he plays, added to his tactical understanding to position the players around him, and the high numbers he achieves year after year both in goals and assists, make him an elite player.

His main weakness is inconsistency, going through spells where he performs well below his peak.
