Heung-min Son will be unveiled by LAFC on Wednesday as the most expensive signing in Major League Soccer history. The Tottenham captain has agreed a two-year deal and will join for a fee of around £20million, which surpasses the $22m (£16.6m) fee paid by Atlanta United for Emmanuel Latte Lath in February 2025.

LAFC has landed Son Heung-min, a Premier League player in the prime of his career who has the ability to connect with South Korean fans.

I miss him already. In the time that we’ve been away, Son Heung-Min has finalized his transfer to Los Angeles FC in MLS and was scheduled to fly into LAX on Tuesday night. (There was a live stream from the airport by a Korean TV station, though the stream cut out before Sonny arrived, apparently).
