An investigation commenced at Gangnam Police Station in Seoul following allegations that a woman in her twenties approached Son last year, asserting that she was pregnant with his child and subsequently demanded money to keep quiet about her claims. It's reported that in March, a man in his forties associated with the woman attempted to pressure Son for financial compensation as well.
The player’s representative issued a statement confirming that Son is the "clear victim" in this distressing situation, asserting that they are fully cooperating with the police inquiry. The agency emphasized their commitment to track down those responsible for this alleged extortion, signaling a firm stance against blackmail and intimidation grounded on deceitful allegations.
As Son prepares to lead his team in the Europa League final against Manchester United in Bilba on Wednesday, the troubling distraction looms large. Since joining Tottenham from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015, Son has made his mark by scoring 173 goals in 451 appearances. The agency promised further updates as the investigation progresses while reiterating their zero-tolerance approach towards false claims and threats aimed at the player.
