Heung-min Son is cherished at Tottenham not just for his brilliance on the pitch, but for his enduring loyalty. After a tough first season in 2015, the South Korean forward asked Mauricio Pochettino if he could return to Germany. Spurs fans will forever be grateful that he stayed.
Others have left for trophies: Modrić, Bale, Kane. Son stayed — and, eventually, lifted silverware. In May, he became the first Tottenham captain in 41 years to win a European trophy, leading the team to Europa League glory.
