Son Heung-min: Tottenham forward leaves club to join LAFC


Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that Son Heung-min has joined Major League Soccer (MLS) side Los Angeles FC on a permanent transfer.

BBC Sport understands that LAFC have paid an MLS record fee of $26m (£19.5m).

The forward revealed in a news conference on Saturday that he would leave Tottenham after 10 years at the club.

The 33-year-old was present at LAFC’s 2-1 Leagues Cup win over Mexican side Tigres UANL on Tuesday.

The paperwork and medical were completed this week, allowing Son to complete the transfer.

The fee paid to Spurs for the South Korean surpasses the previous MLS record of £16.5m paid by Atlanta United to sign Emmanuel Latte Lath from Middlesbrough in February.
