“I didn’t come to MLS because of him, but he definitely influenced me; he made the league more popular, and I aspire to be like him. We’re not on the same team, so I’m really excited to watch him play,” Son said.

Son considers Messi one of the greatest players in football history and believes it is a great honor to compete against him.

This summer, Son transferred to Los Angeles for €22 million from Tottenham, where he played for ten years. So far this season, Son has made 9 appearances for Los Angeles, scoring 8 goals and providing 3 assists.
