Son Heung-min has revealed who his best friends are at Tottenham - and admits that English food is the only aspect of living in London he doesn't like.





Son spoke to the ​Asian Football Confederation during the current international break about life in England, his time at Tottenham and what he disliked about his adopted homeland.







The forward has been in superb form for the Londoners this season after being convinced to remain at White Hart Lane following a lack of game time in his first season at the club.

Son was used sporadically by Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino after making a £25m switch from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2015, and had stated his desire to return to Germany earlier in 2016.





However, the 24-year-old opted to stay with Tottenham and has repaid the faith shown in him this term with five goals and two assists in just six appearances - form that saw Son nominated for September's Player of the Month award.





The South Korea international said he believes that London suits him and his family more than Leverkusen did, apart from one key aspect that he is yet to become accustomed to.

He said: "I think London is the best city in the world. Leverkusen is a small city, and they have Bayer, one big factory.





"I think for my family, and for my life, it's better, London. And also [for] football, I am very comfortable to stay there, in London. Just the food is a bit difficult..."





Son also revealed which of his fellow Tottenham teammates he conversed with most, despite going on to insist that he is happy to have such a good group of players to lean on during what is expected to be another tantalising season for Tottenham.

He added: "Who's my best friend? Many players are my best friend. There's an Austrian guy Kevin Wimmer, Dele Alli, Eric Dier, Victor Wanyama, There's so many good players, and good friends to me."





Tottenham currently lie second in the Premier League table following last Saturday's victory over league leaders Manchester City ahead of their next league encounter, against West Brom, on October 15.
