Tottenham Hotspur will be missing their star forward Son Heung-min for the crucial Europa League quarter-final match against Eintracht Frankfurt. His absence is significant as Spurs aim to salvage a disappointing season without a chance for European qualification through the Premier League. Manager Ange Postecoglou indicated that Son's recurring foot injury ultimately sidelined him after he failed to recover in time. The team faces mounting pressure with Postecoglou's future potentially at stake depending on the outcome of this match, which remains delicately poised at 1-1 following the first leg.
"Sonny didn't travel in the end... He has been battling with his foot problem for a few weeks now and has managed through it but it has got too painful in the last few days."
"It is a blow but it is consistent with everything else that has happened this year. It's just another challenge for us to overcome. It's unfortunate for him."
