Tottenham star Son Heung-min in line to make World Cup after successful surgery for eye socket fractures

Published on November 05, 2022 at 08:00 PM

SON HEUNG-MIN has been handed a boost for his World Cup dream after undergoing successful eye surgery.

The Tottenham ace underwent a procedure earlier this week in order to stabilise a fracture in his left eye socket that he received during the 2-1 victory over Marseille.

Son Heung-Min suffered a fractured eye socket against MarseilleSon was forced off the field with the injury, leaving his World Cup dream in doubtWhile competing for a header against Chancel Mbemba, Son was outleaped and saw his face brutally clash with the former Newcastle man’s shoulder.

He was then forced off amid fears of a concussion, before it was later revealed he would need surgery.

And according to the South Korean’s surgery was a success.

The outlook for him is said to be positive, and he is now expected to be able to play some part in his nation’s World Cup campaign.

Son can also take solace from a similar injury Kevin de Bruyne recovered from prior to the European Championships.

The Man City star picked up an injury in the Champions League final in May 2021 and underwent minor surgery in order to overcome the issue and feature for Belgium less than three weeks later.

However, the bad news is that he is unlikely to feature for Spurs again before the World Cup.

It means Antonio Conte has been left with Harry Kane and a freshly returning Dejan Kulusevski for the North Londoners’ clash against Liverpool.
