Tottenham Hotspur received a big boost on Thursday when Son Heung-min returned to training.
The 24-year-old was expected to be on the sidelines for three months after breaking his right arm.
The forward hurt himself when he landed awkwardly during an international match for South Korea.
Since undergoing an operation, Son has been in recovery, but it appears as though he is closing in on a return to action.
On Spurs’ Twitter page, the club posted pictures of the attacker taking part in a non-contact session.
It was the first time in over six weeks that Son was part of the first-team squad, and his return provides a big boost given that the Premier League season gets underway next weekend.
Some fans have been disappointed in the lack of transfer activity at the North London club, given that manager Mauricio Pochettino is yet to bring in a new signing, but the image of Son back on the training field has pleased many.
