I only watched for 10 minutes, but the best scene came out.
The British site 'SpursWeb' reported on the 15th (Korean time) that Hollywood actor and avid Tottenham Hotspur fan Tom Holland revealed behind-the-scenes moments from the Europa League final. He shared an amazing experience that changed the atmosphere on set in just 10 minutes of viewing.
Son Heung-min is more likely than ever to leave Tottenham this summer. Alasdair Gold, a reporter well-informed about Tottenham's internal matters, noted that while he has not yet decided on his future, he is seriously open to a transfer, stating that it has never been so low in the past 10 years.
Son Heung-min scored 11 goals and provided 11 assists in 46 official matches during the 2024-2025 season. However, due to injuries and a decline in performance, he managed only 7 goals in the Premier League, breaking his streak of scoring double-digit goals for 8 consecutive years. There are opinions that his position in the team is not what it used to be. In fact, he started on the bench in the final.
Naturally, Son Heung-min's future has become the biggest issue for Tottenham. Many argue that now is the right time for him to part ways, as he lifted the UEFA Europa League (UEL) trophy last season, escaping the trophy drought. The Europa League held significant meaning for both Son Heung-min and Tottenham.
A superfan of Tottenham, Holland was filming the latest work of director Christopher Nolan in Los Angeles at the time. However, he never missed any game action.
Holland revealed, "I asked the staff for the score secretly because phone usage was prohibited." During that situation, he recalled that he was able to watch the last 10 minutes during lunch break when he returned to the trailer. And that brief moment allowed him to complete "a truly special scene," while he could not hide his overwhelming emotions.
Above all, it was Son Heung-min who touched Holland's heart. Holland praised, "I almost cried seeing Son Heung-min lift the trophy, as he could have played for any team in the world. However, he stayed with Tottenham until the end, and his dedication is more touching than any heroic tale."
Recently, Son Heung-min has been embroiled in various transfer rumors involving Saudi Arabia and Major League Soccer (MLS) in the United States. However, Holland expressed unwavering support, saying, "No matter what he chooses, he is already a legend of Tottenham." He also revealed his affection for former manager Ange Postecoglou, who was dismissed after the Europa League victory.
Holland stated, "Honestly, I was really sad about Postecoglou's departure. I liked him both as a coach and as a person," adding, "I feel proud to have won in European competition."
Tottenham, which lifted the trophy after 17 years, and fan Tom Holland, who was not present but was the happiest of supporters. His heartfelt emotions once again proved the weight of the names 'Tottenham' and 'Son Heung-min.'
