News reaching our desk confirms that Son Heung-min is to miss Tottenham’s Europa League return leg at Eintracht Frankfurt with a foot injury.
However, Postecoglou, Spurs head coach, confirmed this bad news to the Spurs fans on Wednesday night during an interview.
It is remembered that he did not make the trip to Germany, having missed Saturday’s Premier League match at Wolverhampton. “Sonny didn’t travel in the end; he’s the only one that misses out,” Postecoglou told the pre-match press conference. “He’s been battling with his foot problem for a few weeks now and managed (to play) through it.

“He trained the last few days; he tried to train yesterday, and it wasn’t right, so we made the decision to leave him at home to allow him to recuperate.” Son has three goals and one assist in nine Europa League games this season. After a 1-1 draw in London, where Spurs’ Pedro Porro cancelled out Hugo Ekitike’s early strike, whoever wins at the Waldstadion on Thursday will make the final four.
Postecoglou told Uncovered Ug journalists, “Couldn’t care less” about personal criticism, adding, “If you don’t think I’m a good coach, that’s not going to change because of what happens tomorrow.” We’ve got a great opportunity tomorrow, and I’m not going to let that slip by without fighting tooth and nail.”
In conclusion, Frankfurt coach Dino Toppmoeller said Tottenham’s latest league setback, a 4-2 loss to lowly Wolverhampton on Sunday, plays “absolutely no role because their only focus is the Europa League.”
