"We were the best partners" Kane sincerely supports Son Heung-min's new start

[Financial News]  "He is a really great person."
Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), who formed the Premier League's best attacking duo with Son Heung-min (LAFC) during their time at Tottenham Hotspur, sincerely supported his 'soul partner's' new challenge.
Kane, after finishing a pre-season friendly match with Tottenham at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany on the 8th (Korean time), met with reporters and said about Son Heung-min's transfer, "I sincerely congratulate him and his career at Tottenham," he said.
Since Son Heung-min joined Tottenham in 2015, Kane and Son have boasted fantastic chemistry, setting a record of 47 goals, the most in Premier League history. Although Kane transferred to Munich in 2023, the 'Son-Kane duo' went their separate ways, and recently, Son Heung-min also left for LAFC in Major League Soccer (MLS), temporarily halting their partnership.
Kane recalled his partnership with Son Heung-min, saying, "As players, we showed the best partnership in EPL history. It was really enjoyable to play on the field with him," he said. He continued, "Son Heung-min is a really humble and good person," praising Son as a human being beyond a player.
Despite playing together at Tottenham for a long time, the two players did not lift a trophy, but last season, each resolved their 'trophy drought' with different teams. Kane won the Bundesliga title with Munich, and Son Heung-min experienced the UEFA Europa League victory, earning a valuable trophy.
Kane said, "It was really great that Son Heung-min's Tottenham career ended with lifting a trophy," and added, "Last season was very special for him and will be cherished," conveying a message of congratulations. He concluded by saying, "A new chapter has opened for Son Heung-min. I wish him luck in LA and hope to meet him soon," showcasing their unwavering friendship.
