[마이데일리 = 최용재 기자]Great news has been delivered. His son Heung-min of Tottenham in the English Premier League (EPL) was named among the 100 best players in the history of world football.
It is not limited to the EPL, and it is not limited to jobs, and it is not limited to periods. 100 players selected across all positions in world football history. Among them was Mab Heung-min from Korea. This is really encouraging news.
The person who founded this site was Oliver Holt, a famous reporter for the Daily Mail. He said via ‘Daily Mail’, “I have selected the 100 best players in the history of world football. Sorry if your favorite player is not included. Sorry if your idol is missing from the list. This list will be flawed. But it is my choice, and I will stick to this choice.”
‘Daily Mail’ published the rankings for the first time from 100 to 51 in one episode. Son Heung-min was proudly ranked 93. The media said, “One of the greatest Asian players of all time. Son Heung-min arrived at Tottenham almost 10 years ago and has consistently been one of the best players in the EPL since then. He is a smart and fast striker. Son Heung-min is a striker known by others. “He is a selfless team player who constantly sacrifices individual achievements to score goals for the team.”
Son Heung-min surpassed his EPL rival Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) and also surpassed Neymar, who was considered one of the best strikers in the world. Salah is ranked 94th and Neymar 99th.
The media said about Salah, “He showed excellent skills at Liverpool. He is a great resource for Jurgen Klopp. Salah is a prolific striker who won the UEFA Champions League (UCL) and EPL.”
Regarding Neymar, “Unfortunately, Neymar was not able to make the most of his great talent. He had amazing skills, but injuries kept him on the sidelines. Winning an Olympic gold medal could be a high point, but pales in comparison to his talent.” He explained.
Looking at the rest of the rankings, Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard was ranked 92nd, just above Son Heung-min. Legendary Chelsea striker Didier Drogba was ranked 88th, and Son Heung-min’s soul mate Harry Kane was ranked 87th. Manchester United legends Ryan Giggs, David Beckham, Wayne Rooney, and Paul Scholes were ranked 85th, 77th, 68, and 65, respectively. Kevin De Bruyne, Manchester City’s greatest ever midfielder, was ranked 54th.
