Son Heung-min Factor, Tottenham Hotspur Return To Pre-season Tour To South Korea For The Third Time

JAKARTA - Tottenham Hotspur will take on the K League XI in the South Korean capital, Seoul on the Premier League club's pre-season tour on July 13.

Korea's Son Heung-min and England's striker Harry Kane will be the star attractions as Spurs take on the best players selected from South Korea's top league.

Quoted from AFP on Thursday, Antonio Conte's side will also play a second pre-season friendly in South Korea, details of which will be announced later.

The Spurs have built a strong following in South Korea because of their Korean national player Son and this will be their third visit to the country.

Premier League teams are set to embark on a series of money-making international tours this summer, having been postponed for the past two years due to the pandemic.

Also in July, Manchester United will take on arch-rivals Liverpool in Bangkok before flying to Australia.

United, who looked set to be under the management of Dutchman Erik ten Hag at the time, will face fellow Premier League side Crystal Palace in Melbourne.
