Jurgen Klinsmann, coach of the Korean national soccer team, was pleased with Son Heung-min, who wore the 'captain armband' of Tottenham (England), and Kim Min-jae, who made his debut in Germany's most prestigious Bayern Munich.
Director Klinsman said of Son Heung-min at a non-face-to-face press conference on the 17th, "I am very proud of Son Heung-min, who became Tottenham's captain."
Korean football's 'ace' Son Heung-min was appointed as Tottenham's captain ahead of the 2023-2024 season.
In the regular season opener (2-2 draw) against Brentford held on the 13th, he wore the captain’s armband and hit the ground.
Coach Klinsman, who was in Ireland for a charity event, went to London, England, to watch Son Heung-min's match.
Tottenham is a special club for manager Klinsman.
Manager Klinsman played for Tottenham in the 1994-1995 and 1997-1998 seasons.
Although the time he has been active is short, he is recognized as Tottenham's 'Legend' by leaving a strong impression, such as saving the team from the relegation zone.
Director Klinsman said, "Becoming captain at a big club like Tottenham would be a very big achievement for Son Heung-min as an individual," and evaluated it as "the result of Son Heung-min's constant efforts."
Munich, where Kim Min-jae made his new home, is also a club where coach Klinsmann played for two seasons.
Kim Min-jae made his Munich debut on the 13th in the Super Cup against Leipzig (0-3 loss).
Coach Klinsman showed firm faith, saying, "I have no worries about Kim Min-jae.
The world's best defender has joined the world's best club."
"Son Heung-min and Kim Min-jae are the faces of Korean football.
They are playing the role of ambassadors informing the world of the status of Korean football."
Coach Klinsman reiterated his desire to serve as a bridge for Korean players to advance overseas, which he has been doing since taking office.
Coach Klinsman said, "I tell the players to find me anytime if they need anything (related to going abroad).
In the end, the place where the players grow and develop is the club they belong to.
I will help the players make good choices."
