Heung-Min Son suffered an eye injury in Tottenham’s match against Marseille in the sixth round of the Champions League group stage. The South Korean ace was forced to leave the field in the 29th minute after a collision with Ebeba.
The leader of the Londoners underwent an examination, which showed that he had a broken bone near his left eye.
According to Tottenham, the player will go through the door of the operating room to solve the problem. Therefore, his participation in the World Championship, which starts on November 20, is doubtful.
Any absence of the 30-year-old will be a big blow to Paulo Bento’s team. South Korea was placed in the eighth group and will play Uruguay, Ghana and Portugal in order.
We can confirm that Heung Min Sung will undergo surgery to stabilize the fracture around his left eye.
