Son Heung-min recently issued a statement following a racist comment made by his Tottenham teammate, Rodrigo Bentancur. In the comment, Bentancur appeared to say that all South Korean people “look the same” during an interview with a Uruguayan TV station. Tottenham released a statement, including quotes from Son, stating that Bentancur had apologized for his mistake and that they are united as a team.
Son mentioned in his statement that he had spoken with Bentancur, who acknowledged his mistake and apologized. Son emphasized that they are like brothers and nothing has changed between them. He expressed that they are moving past the incident and will come together during preseason to fight for their club.
Tottenham also released a statement on the matter, expressing their commitment to providing education to all players in alignment with their diversity, equality, and inclusion objectives. The club affirmed its support for Son and indicated that they are focused on the upcoming season.
Bentancur issued an apology on Instagram, referring to his comments as a “very bad joke” and expressing his love for Son. While Kick It Out received complaints about the incident, Bentancur expressed regret for his words and reassured Son of his respect and admiration for him.
