Son Heung-min suffered an orbital fracture in the final match of the 2022-2023 European Football Federation (UEFA) Champions League (UCL) group stage once morest Marseille (France) on the 2nd of last month, before the opening of the Qatar World Cup, and even underwent surgery.

Nevertheless, he showed his fighting spirit by participating in the World Cup with a face shield on, and helped Korea reach the round of 16 following 12 years. Son Heung-min played full-time in all four matches the national team played.

Son Heung-min, who took a short break following returning home with the national team following the World Cup, left for England on the 13th.

After that, I participated in team training right away.
