My vision is fine, but there are times when I can’t see the ball when it comes, so it’s annoying. I don’t care too much, but it’s not the best.”

He continued, “I was really frustrated when I suddenly didn’t see him while receiving the ball during the match against Aston Villa. I was just angry. If I were alone, I would not have worn a mask, but I’m worried about my parents, family, and friends who will be watching in Korea. Collisions with opponents are definitely dangerous. do,” he added.

“Doctors also said after Villajeon, ‘It’s your decision, but it’s only been 7 weeks since the surgery. It’s still dangerous, so I recommend wearing a mask,'” he continued.

Orbital fractures usually take about 3 months to fully heal. Therefore, it seems that the mask will be worn until February at the longest. Son Heung-min is doing his best to help Tottenham following South Korea despite the mask that constricts him.
