The South Korean international has been a consistent goalscorer for Spurs for the past 10 years and wants to cap his career with the club by winning his first silverware in the Europa League final against Manchester United later this month.

During an interview with Korean media, Son said: "We’ve been talking about this for years. The biggest reason I stayed at Tottenham was because I wanted to do something others couldn’t achieve.

"That’s probably why I’m where I am now. You need all the pieces to complete a puzzle. I think I’ve gathered all the other pieces to make that puzzle complete.

"It feels like I’ve been missing that one most important final piece and I’ve been trying to find it for the past 10 years. I really hope I can finally complete the puzzle this time.

"It feels different this time. I really want to win – more than anyone else, I think. So many people are supporting us with the same desperate passion I feel. If we prepare well, I believe we can achieve it."

Son's former team-mate Harry Kane recently landed the first silverware of his career at Bayern Munich and the forward hopes that the England captain's Bundesliga success in Bavaria can inspire his former team in the Bilbao showpiece.

He said: "I actually texted Harry and he called me back on a video call! I was really happy to see him happy.

"He is one of my best friends and to see a once team-mate achieve so much, I was delighted for him like he’s my family. With that positive energy, I hope he can support Spurs in the game as well so we can achieve a good result like his.

"For me, every game is special and every game is meaningful, but this game feels like an opportunity that may not come back."
