Son Heung-min willing to represent S. Korea at Olympics: coach
May 24, 2021
Tottenham Hotspur’s South Korean star Son Heung-min famously helped his country to the gold medal at the 2018 Asian Games. Three years later, the national football icon would like to do the same at the Olympics in Tokyo.
To hear Kim Hak-bum, head coach of the South Korean Olympic football team, tell it on Monday, motivation or drive to compete for the country at the Summer Games is not a concern for Son.
The only — and perhaps the largest — obstacle at hand is whether Son’s Premier League club has the same willingness.
