Tottenham may have finally found their Christian Eriksen replacement in Son Heung-min.
Son enjoyed an extremely productive 2021/22 campaign, netting 23 Premier League goals - a record that reads even more impressive when you factor in that none of those came from the penalty spot. Still, the South Korean has been showcasing that he is more than capable from set-pieces during the ongoing international break.
The former Bayer Leverkusen attacker has scored free-kicks in back-to-back games against Chile and Paraguay, staking his claim to become Spurs' primary free-kick taker ahead of the likes of defender Eric Dier and striker Harry Kane. Kane scored his first-ever direct free-kick in the Premier League against Aston Villa back in 2014 but has since struggled from set-pieces, failing to find the back of the net from his next 53 attempts in the league, as per Opta, via fannation.
