In a public-facing interview inside the Tottenham Hotspur tent, South Korean international Son shared his insights on individual versus collective glory. Although he is immensely proud of the milestones he has reached in terms of goals and assists at Tottenham, he confessed that given the chance, he would rather redeem these individual glories for the glory of a trophy.
"I'm proud to have written my own legend at the club, and every goal and every assist is a testament to my efforts." Sun said, "But deep down, I always feel that these achievements are not enough to satisfy me. I aspire to bring more collective glory to the team." Talking about the desire to exchange one thing for another, his answer was not hesitant: "I would exchange my record of goals and assists for a trophy. A trophy, for a player, is a symbol of team glory that unites the sweat and effort of each of us."
Son went on to emphasize, "I think every player, including the fans, should have the chance to lift the trophy. We are fighting for it together and we have to be united. This season, it seems trivial to talk about personal records. I'm proud of those records, but in comparison, I'm looking forward to us working towards the same goal - winning the title."
Sun's words revealed his desire for team glory and his unwavering commitment to victory. He bluntly stated that he just wanted to win the title and that desire remains strong. This spirit inspires not only himself, but also the entire Tottenham team to sprint towards greater achievements.
As the backbone of the Tottenham Hotspur team, Son's performance has always been the center of attention. His goals and assists have not only won key victories for the team, but also demonstrated his leadership qualities at critical moments. We have reason to believe that under his leadership, Spurs will continue to move forward on the field, presenting more wonderful moments and unforgettable moments for fans.
