Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte had nothing but good words to say to the struggling Son Heung-min. He added that Son is striving to find his best form. According to Korean sportsbook sources, the South Korean striker has been having a hard time after his injury sustained in the match against Marseille.
In addition to Son’s current injury, an orbital fracture that required surgery in November is cause for concern about his performance this season. Son scored 23 goals in 2021-22, but he only has three this season. He scored all three in a game against Leicester on September 17.
Other than those two assists, he has been almost invisible after that.
Struggling Son Heung-min has Conte’s Support
Due to his extended goal drought earlier in the season, Son spent more time on the bench than he usually does. However, with Dejan Kulusevski and Richarlison out, Son’s lack of playing time hasn’t been a problem since the season’s restart.
As crucial as Son is for Conte, he isn’t the only one who has struggled since the World Cup. According to Korea sports league news reports, captain Lloris, who advanced to the final in Qatar, blundered severely in Sunday’s 2-0 loss to Aston Villa.
While highs and lows are a part of every season, Conte insists that worries about Lloris and Son are unwarranted. According to a sports forum, Tottenham Hotspur will play Crystal Palace away in south London on Wednesday night, Thursday at 5 a.m. in Korea.
