The possibility of Tottenham visiting Korea again this summer has been raised. If realized, it will be their third visit to Korea in the last four years.

British media outlet Daily Mail reported on the 4th that 'Newcastle United is discussing the possibility of playing a preseason friendly match against Tottenham at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.' It was also added that, if Son Heung-min (33, Tottenham) participates, the 66,000-seat Seoul World Cup Stadium is expected to sell out.

Tottenham first visited Korea in 2022 through the Coupang Play series. Tickets were sold out for both matches against the K League All-Stars and Sevilla. In 2024, they also played two matches against Bayern Munich, which includes Kim Min-jae (28, Bayern Munich), against the K League All-Stars, and it was also successful in terms of attracting fans.

If this summer tour is confirmed, another large-scale fan gathering is expected. Recently, with Son Heung-min's situation being uncertain, fans are more likely to cherish the opportunity to see his performances in person in Korea.

Tottenham's promising second-team player Yang Min-hyeok is also likely to be included in the list of visitors to Korea. An internal source from Tottenham has publicly stated that Yang Min-hyeok will return to Tottenham after finishing his loan period with Queens Park Rangers at the end of this season.

Scenes of Son Heung-min and Yang Min-hyeok, known as 'the second Son Heung-min,' playing side by side in Tottenham uniforms may be revealed for the first time in front of fans during the summer preseason.

Newcastle's Asia tour plans have been reported multiple times in the media. If this tour is realized, it will be Newcastle's first visit to Korea.

Newcastle initially considered Hong Kong as a destination but reportedly revised their plans due to scheduling conflicts with other clubs. They are currently pursuing a schedule that includes Singapore and Korea.

Daily Mail reported that 'Newcastle is likely to play two matches in Korea, with opponents expected to be Tottenham and the K League All-Stars.' It was further noted that 'In Singapore, a match against Arsenal is in the works, but the overall schedule has not yet been finalized.'
