After spending a decade at Tottenham and becoming one of the club\u2019s most beloved modern players, his experience, leadership and understanding of the Spurs culture could make him a hugely valuable presence around the first team and academy.<\/p>\n<p>Son departed Tottenham in 2025 after an extraordinary spell in which he became club captain and helped Spurs win the UEFA Europa League. He also became the first Asian player to win the Premier League Golden Boot, sharing the award after scoring 23 goals in the 2021\/22 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>For supporters, seeing Son back inside Tottenham Hotspur Stadium would bring back memories of countless unforgettable moments \u2014 spectacular goals, emotional celebrations and his famous connection with the Spurs faithful.<\/p>\n<p>A senior role would also allow Son to pass his experience on to Tottenham\u2019s younger generation. His professionalism, work ethic and knowledge of playing at the highest level could make him an important mentor for emerging stars.<\/p>\n<p>Roberto De Zerbi is indeed Tottenham&#8217;s head coach, having been appointed on a long-term contract in March 2026<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tottenham Hotspur supporters have always had a special place in<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":15403,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[359],"class_list":["post-15400","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-tottenham-hotspurs-fc"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>NEWS WE COULD HOPE FOR: In a moment that has sent shockwaves of joy through the valley and The team broader community Tottenham Hotspur head coach Roberto De Zerbi has officially confirmed that legendary Son Heung-min returning to the organisation _ this time not as a player but as their new senior c\u2026.see more - topupsport<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Tottenham Hotspur supporters have always had a special place in their hearts for Son Heung-min, and the idea of the club legend ...
