GO ON MY SONS

HEUNG-MIN SON has told his Tottenham “family” to step up when he is on Asian Cup duty – just like he did when Harry Kane was out.

The Spurs captain scored his 13th goal of the campaign against Bournemouth before heading off on international duty.

South Korea’s first game is on January 15 in Qatar with the final on February 10.

Starting with Friday’s FA Cup tie with Burnley, Son could miss up to five Tottenham matches.

Since the £100m summer departure of Kane, Son has become the new talisman of a team entering the New Year in fifth in the Premier League.

His side will look to Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski and Richarlison (left, from top to bottom) to fill the goal void in his absence.
