Tottenham’s Son Heung-min, who is challenging Asia’s first English Premier League (EPL) top scorer, was evaluated as the best player in Europe this season.
Heung-Min Son was named in Eurosport’s ‘Best Player of the Season’ announced ahead of the end of the European football season 2021-2022.
Eurosports announced the team of the year, the moment of the year, and the best and worst transfers of the season in advance.
Eurosport said, “While Messi was stagnant for a year, an amazing thing happened. To the question of ‘who is the best’, there were 20 to 30 correct answers,” and “our answer is Heung-Min Son.”
In the meantime, I compared the situation of Son Heung-min, the second highest scorer in the EPL (21 goals), and the first place, Salah (22 goals).
The media reported, “Sala spent a season with the best team in the world where he could make the most of his amazing talent. On the other hand, Son Heung-min played under (Santo), who seemed unwilling to score in the first half of the season, and in the second half, he was much better than that, but it took two weeks. I worked with (Conte) manager who wants to resign every time.”
“Heung-min Son didn’t even score from a penalty kick,” he added.
Heung-Min Son was also selected as the left winger in Eurosport’s ‘EPL Team of the Year’.
Tottenham teammate Harry Kane was placed as the striker and Salah was placed as the right winger.
Eurosport also named Sam Kerr (Chelsea Women) as the top scorer of the season and Real Madrid (Spain) as the best team of the season.
Messi, who left FC Barcelona (Spain) to wear a Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) jersey, was the worst transfer player, and Tammy Abraham, who moved from Chelsea (England) to AS Roma (Italy), was voted the best transfer player.
In the EPL, all teams have one game left, and the competition between Son Heung-min and Salah for the top scorer is not over.
Heung-Min Son will challenge for the title of top scorer in the away game against Norwich City at 12:00 pm Korean time tomorrow night.
Heung-Min Son, who scored 4 goals in 4 recent league matches, is also ranked first in the UK Sky Sports’ EPL season cumulative ‘Power Ranking’.
Power Ranking is a leaderboard that evaluates an individual player’s performance.
Son Heung-min, who beat Salah in the cumulative power ranking for the season on the 9th, also surpassed 2nd place Salah (71,760) with 75,796 points in the newly announced ranking today (21st).
Heung-Min Son was excluded from the EPL Player of the Year nomination for the 2021-2022 season selected by fans.
The six nominees announced by the Professional Football Association of England (PFA) include Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Conor Gallagher (Crystal Palace), Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden (Manchester City) and Declan Rice (Manchester City). West Ham) was named.
