Tottenham Hotspur face several weeks without Son Heung-min after arm surgery

Korean star Son Heung-min’s season could well be over said Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho on Tuesday after the club said the player had fractured his right arm.

The 27-year-old South Korean international forward suffered the injury in the 3-2 Premier League victory over Aston Villa – in which he scored twice including the late winner – on Sunday.

Son suffered the injury in a robust first-minute challenge from Villa’s Ezri Konsa.

“I’m not going to count on him again this season,” Mourinho said at a press conference on the eve of their Champions League Last 16 first leg match with German outfit RB Leipzig.
