nexnews – Yang Min-Hyuk, an 18-year-old winger from Gangwon FC in South Korea, has arrived in London a month earlier than planned to begin his journey with Tottenham Hotspur. Originally set to join the team in mid-January, Yang’s early arrival was approved by Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou to expedite his integration into the squad.
The young Korean talent signed a six-year deal with Tottenham earlier this summer, and his addition has generated excitement among fans, particularly due to the prospect of him teaming up with his compatriot and Spurs captain, Son Heung-min.
Speaking to reporters at Seoul Airport before boarding his flight, Yang expressed his enthusiasm: “I’m thrilled to join Tottenham and to have the chance to play alongside Son. It’s a great honor, and I’m eager to prove my abilities and contribute to the team. I can’t wait to get to London and start this exciting chapter of my career.”
Yang’s early involvement in Tottenham’s training sessions is seen as a strategic move to acclimatize the youngster to the Premier League’s demands while building a connection with his teammates, including Son, who has already paved the way for Korean players in England.
Fans are eager to see if Yang can follow in Son’s footsteps and make a significant impact at the North London club.
