Tottenham completed the £22million signing of South Korean forward Son Heung-min from Bayer Leverkusen on this day in 2015.
Son was handed the number seven shirt after agreeing a five-year deal with the north London club.
He was the Bundesliga outfit’s top scorer in the Champions League the previous season with three goals.
Son’s arrival spelled the end of Tottenham’s pursuit of Saido Berahino. They had already had two offers rejected for the West Brom striker.
✍️ We are delighted to announce that Heung-Min Son has signed a new four-year contract with the Club, which will run until 2025.
