The team’s undisputed star has also been worried about by his or her teammates. Kwon Chang-hoon, a midfielder, missed the 2018 World Cup because he got hurt right before it started. He knows what Son is going through.
Fans of the South Korean national soccer team are keeping their fingers crossed that Son Heung-min will be able to participate fully in the World Cup, which will begin later this month.
It is highly possible that one of the most well-known athletes in Asia will travel to Qatar, regardless of whether or not they have fully healed from their injuries.
The Korea Football Association is hopeful that Son will be able to play in the first game in Group H, which will be played on November 24, against Uruguay. According to a statement given to the Associated Press by a KFA official, “We are hoping that he will recover in time but we are waiting for clarity on that.” Also added,”We believe that Son will go to the World Cup whatever; the only question is whether or not he plays and how much of a role he will play,”

Son was playing for Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday, when he was involved in a collision with Marseille defender, Chancel Mbemba. The collision occurred during the UEFA Champions League match between Marseille and Tottenham Hotspur. The accident caused Son to suffer a fracture around his left eye. On Wednesday, Tottenham made the announcement that their star forward would be undergoing surgery; however, no specific timetable has been provided for his rehabilitation.
The major achievement of Son Heung-min
The Golden Boot is awarded to the player who finishes the season as the top scorer in the Premier League, which is the highest level of competition in English football. Son earned this award during the previous season. Additionally, he has scored 35 goals for his country, making him the top scorer among attackers. Even with Son, South Korea was considered a long shot to advance out of its group, which included Uruguay, Ghana, and Portugal. This was the country’s 10th consecutive appearance at the World Cup. It will be considerably more difficult to accomplish without the captain, who is 30 years old.
Hong Jong-won addresses the media with some information
Professor Hong Jong-won, who works in the department of plastic surgery at Yonsei University Severance Hospital in Seoul, told the Yonhap News Agency that it was likely going to take Son at least four weeks to heal from his injury. As sports fans in Korea discuss Son’s possibilities of returning, the local media in Korea provided comprehensive coverage of the injury, including publishing schematics of facial bone structure.
The team’s undisputed star has also been worried about by his or her teammates. Kwon Chang-hoon, a midfielder, missed the 2018 World Cup because he got hurt right before it started. He knows what Son is going through. Kwon said, “Everyone is worried about Heung-min. All we can do from here is hear the news, and we’re all praying that Heung-min will get better soon.”
South Korea’s players who live and play in Asia are at a training camp in Paju, which is north of Seoul. They are getting ready for their final warm-up game against Iceland, on November 11. The next day, coach Paulo Bento will choose the 26 players who will be on the team. The team will leave for Qatar, on November 14.
