Son Heung-min Opens Up About Playing with Harry Kane: “This Duo Was Hilarious”

In a recent interview, South Korean football sensation Son Heung-min spoke fondly about his former Tottenham Hotspur teammate Harry Kane, calling him the “smartest player” he’s ever played with. The two formed a lethal partnership on the pitch, with their connection often described as one of the best in Premier League history.

Son shared how Kane’s intelligence on the field made him a special player, emphasizing how the English striker always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. “Harry Kane is the smartest player I’ve ever played with,” Son stated, reflecting on their years together at Spurs. “He reads the game in a way that most players can only dream of. He’s not just a goal scorer, but a complete forward with an incredible understanding of the game.”

Son’s admiration for Kane goes beyond his technical abilities. The pair’s off-the-field bond also played a key role in their on-field success. “This duo was hilarious,” Son added, recalling the lighthearted moments they shared during training sessions and matchdays. “We had a lot of fun together, and I still miss him,” he continued, expressing his regret over Kane’s departure from Tottenham last summer.

The duo formed a deadly combination over the years, with Son often benefiting from Kane’s precise assists, while Son’s speed and finishing ability complemented Kane’s vision and creativity. Their partnership became iconic, and many fans still remember their brilliant link-up play.

With Kane now playing for Bayern Munich, Son has moved on to other challenges at Tottenham, but his bond with the striker remains strong. As Son continues to lead Spurs on the pitch, fans will always remember the unforgettable partnership between the two players.
