Tottenham Hotspur captain Son Heung-min has confirmed he will leave the club this summer, drawing the curtain on a remarkable decade-long spell in north London.
The 33-year-old South Korea international, who joined Spurs from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015, has scored 173 goals in 454 appearances and captained the team to Europa League glory in May, the club’s first trophy in 17 years.
Speaking during a press conference alongside new Tottenham head coach Thomas Frank in Seoul, where the club is currently on a pre-season tour, Son described the decision to leave as “the most difficult one I have made in my career.”
“I came to north London as a kid — a very young age, a young boy came to London who even didn’t speak English,” Son recalled emotionally. “Leaving this club as a grown man is a very, very proud moment.”
Son’s contract with Tottenham runs until 2026, but reports have linked him with a move to Major League Soccer side Los Angeles FC, suggesting a transfer may be imminent. His farewell match could come as early as Sunday, when Spurs face Newcastle United in a friendly in Seoul — potentially giving Son a final appearance in front of his home fans.
Frank, who took over from Ange Postecoglou as head coach in June, paid tribute to Son, calling him “a true Spurs legend” and “one of the greatest players to play in the Premier League.”
“If that is the last game for Sonny, what a place to do it, here in front of his home fans,” Frank said. “It could be a beautiful ending.”
Although Tottenham are due to face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup on 13 August, Son may leave the club before that fixture, closing a chapter that has left an indelible mark on both Tottenham and the Premier League.

A new report has spilled the tea on the year's top adult content trends, and it turns out Canucks were into everything from old standbys to some very new tricks.</p><p>Pornhub has dropped its annual <a href="https://www.pornhub.com/insights/2024-year-in-review" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Year in Review for 2024</a>, and it's full of fascinating insights about what Canadians were searching for this year. Between "MILF" still holding strong and a spike in interest for terms like "dominant woman," Canadians definitely had their own unique flavour when it came to their favourite adult content.</p><p>Let's dive into the details and see what got Canadians all hot and bothered this year.</p><p><em>This article contains graphic content that might not be suitable for some readers.</em></p><h3>Canada's top turn-ons</h3><p>It's official: "MILF" is still the reigning search term champ in Canada. The acronym topped the search charts again this year, proving that Canucks have a lasting love for mature-themed content. </p><p>The second-highest search term was "hentai," followed by "Asian," which climbed up a spot from last year, knocking "lesbian" down to fourth place. Other popular searches included "anal" and "creampie," both of which rose slightly in the rankings.</p><p>Canadians weren't just sticking to the classics this year, either — they were also diving into some pretty niche searches and new trends, with the top trending search, "dominant woman," skyrocketing by a whopping +886%. Other trending terms included "big natural chubby" (+764%) and "really old MILF" (+657%). Looks like Canucks weren't shy about exploring some very specific niches this year.</p><p>When it came to categories, Canadians showed love for "Lesbian" content, keeping it at the top spot for another year. "MILF" also climbed into second place, bumping "Threesome" down to fourth. Meanwhile, the "Anal" category landed in third, with "Mature" rounding out the top five.</p><p>Canada also stood out globally with some unique viewing habits. The "Small Tits" category was viewed 82% more here than the world average, while "Virtual Reality" and "Red Head" also saw a noticeable uptick in popularity in the Great White North.</p><h3>How long we lasted</h3><p>On average, Canadians spent 10 minutes and 26 seconds per visit, placing us fourth worldwide for engagement time and well above the global average of 9 minutes and 40 seconds. Guess we're just too polite to leave without thoroughly enjoying ourselves, eh?</p><p>Women made up just 29% of Canadian traffic, trailing below the global average of 38% — and far behind the Philippines and Argentina, where women accounted for the majority of viewers at 59% and 51%, respectively. However, female visitors spent an average of 17 seconds longer per session than their male counterparts.</p><p>In terms of timing, Pornhub saw the highest traffic around 11 p.m. and midnight. Mondays were the most popular day to watch, while Fridays saw the biggest dip — perhaps folks were saving their energy for weekend plans?</p><h3>The big picture</h3><p>Globally, the most-viewed category of 2024 was "MILF," which jumped four spots compared to last year. Meanwhile, searches inspired by major events like the Paris Olympics and viral moments like "Hawk Tuah" kept things current.</p><p>While some trends were loud and proud, 2024 also saw a <em>very demure, very mindful</em> movement take centre stage, with Pornhub crowning "demure desires" as the number-one "search that defined 2024." Searches for terms like "demure" (+133%), "mindful pleasure" (+112%) and "modest MILF" (+45%) reflected a shift toward simpler, more <em>cutesy</em> content. </p><p>"It seems people may be pining for a simpler time — looking for things that are less complicated and maybe seeking out more meaningful experiences," said Dr. Laurie Betito, director of Pornhub's Sexual Wellness Center.</p><p>With increases in searches for terms like "ethical porn" (+92%), "respectful sex" (+61%) and "real authentic" (+39%), viewers were clearly leaning into content that felt more genuine and less performative.</p><p>So whether you're into exploring new trends or sticking to tried-and-true favourites, one thing's for sure — Canadians aren't very demure when it comes to keeping things interesting.</p><p><span></span><em>Love this?
