Son Heung-min is too good at making money.

The South Korean striker is the captain and also the highest-paid player at Tottenham currently.

Son Heung-min has a huge fortune.

Statistics from Capology show that Son pockets £190,000 per week, leading the list of Tottenham's highest-paid players. He earns nearly £10 million per year playing in England, not including performance bonuses and advertising contracts.

According to Celebrity Net Worth , Son has a net worth of around £42 million. In South Korea, no player earns as much as the Tottenham striker. The SCMP reports that Son also made it onto the list of South Korea's highest-paid advertising stars in 2021.

At one point, Transfermarkt valued Son at over £80 million, an unbelievable figure for an Asian player.

In his home country, Son is a highly sought-after face and receives numerous offers from brands. Korean media once revealed that when he signed an advertising contract with a domestic shampoo company, Son pocketed £6.4 million in 2020. A year later, that amount had increased to over £8 million.

A famous South Korean fried chicken chain once admitted they had to reconsider a long-term partnership with Son because "the striker's advertising fees have increased too rapidly year after year."

Another ice cream company in South Korea is facing a similar situation. They revealed an 80% increase in revenue since partnering with Son. However, in return, the fee for the footballer to continue representing the brand has skyrocketed.

With a stellar football career and immense commercial appeal, Son is the pride of South Korean football. The striker's wealth is not only reflected in the numbers but also in his far-reaching influence on and off the pitch.

A video highlighting Son Heung-min's injury has drawn attention. The lingering effects of Son Heung-min's dislocated finger were captured up close in the latest video, prompting fans to express concern about the pain he is enduring.
