JAKARTA - Tottenham Hotspur's Son Heung-min has been named the best South Korean men's football player 2021 for the sixth time. This is a record.

Son topped a poll of South Korean KFA officials and journalists ahead of Fenerbahce centre-back Kim Min-jae to win the award for the third year in a row.

He previously won the title in 2013, 2014 and 2017.

The 29-year-old has scored 22 goals for Tottenham in all competitions throughout the 2020/21 season, while also netting four times in World Cup qualifiers in 2021.

Meanwhile, Chelsea's Ji So-yun won the women's award for the sixth time after winning it in 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2019.

Ji won the Women's Super League, League Cup and FA Cup last season as Chelsea completed three domestic titles.

They also finished as runners-up in the UEFA Women's Champions League.
