Liverpool's rival Tottenham Hotspur face the possibility of losing talisman Son Heung-min midway through the upcoming campaign due to his expected participation in the 2023 AFC Asian Cup.
The tournament, which was supposed to take place this summer in China, suffered setbacks due to the host country's issues involving Covid-19. Last year the decisions were made to postpone and then relocate the tournament to recent World Cup hosts Qatar, with dates finally confirmed earlier in 2023.
As reported by football.london, the attacker's first group stage match with South Korea will take place on Monday, January 15 with the final on Saturday, February 10. During this window, depending on when players are released for international duty and the North London club's success in the FA Cup and Carabao Cup, Son could miss up to seven domestic matches.
