Striker Heung-Min Son will be missed by the English first division football team Tottenham Hotspur in the Champions League round of 16 against RB Leipzig.
As the club announced the day before the first leg match on Wednesday (21:00), the goal scorer suffered a fracture in his right arm in the league match at Aston Villa (3:2) on Sunday. The former Bundesliga professional will require surgery and will be out of action for “a few weeks”.
For Tottenham’s team manager Jose Mourinho, it is the next personnel setback after the injuries of captain Harry Kane and midfielder Moussa Sissoko.
South Korean Son had scored a brace for the Spurs against Aston Villa, including the winning goal in the fourth minute of added time.
