The 33-year-old forward, who joined LAFC in August 2025 after a decorated decade with Tottenham Hotspur, expressed frustration with the ongoing speculation. He emphasized that his focus remains entirely on his current club and that he has never entertained discussions about a temporary move elsewhere during the winter break.
“I’ve never spoken to any club about a winter move. Such talk is simply untrue,” Son said, reported TV Chosun. “For me, showing respect to my club and giving everything where I play – that’s what matters most. That won’t change.
“I won’t leave LAFC this winter, or ever, while I’m here. I respect this club deeply. As long as I’m wearing this badge, there will be no such thing as a loan or a move. Never.”
Son stressed it’s important he gives the right perception to his new set of fans in LAFC and MLS.
“I know fans get confused when rumours fly. But those stories aren’t true. And honestly, it might be disrespectful to my team to even talk that way. I love this club, and I have huge respect for everyone here,” he said.
