Following Heung-min Son\u2019s exit from Tottenham Hotspur, Harry Kane has reminisced on the partnership that he had with the South Korean and the connection the pair shared on and off the pitch<\/p>\n

As expected, plenty of Son\u2019s former Spurs teammates have congratulated the forward<\/a> after he called time on his decade-long spell at N17.<\/p>\n

Even Ange Postecoglou has waxed lyrical about Son<\/a>, looking back proudly on his decision to make him Tottenham captain two years ago.<\/p>\n

Now, the man who many Spurs<\/a> fans were waiting to hear from, Harry Kane, has spoken about his former striker partner and the connection they shared at Tottenham.<\/p>\n

Kane and Son combined for 47 Premier League goals<\/a> during their eight years together at Spurs, which is comfortably more than any other partnership in the competition\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

The England captain, who played and scored for Bayern in their 4-0 win over his former side on Thursday, has now spoken about the connection he shared with Son and wished his former teammate the best in Los Angeles FC.<\/p>\n

When asked about Son\u2019s<\/a> departure from Spurs, Kane<\/a> said (via Reuters<\/a>): \u201cMassive congratulations to him and his career at Tottenham. First and foremost, a great person. I\u2019ve got to know him really well as a friend, and just how humble he is and how good a guy he is.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think as a player, you know, we had one of the best partnerships in Premier League history. We just had that connection that we loved.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a great way for his Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> career to end, to lift the trophy last year with the team\u2026 and now it\u2019s a new chapter for him, he\u2019ll go to LA, and I wish him all the best, and I hope to see him soon and we can catch up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Classy reason why Son decided against staying one more year<\/p>\n

The South Korean showed tremendous loyalty to Spurs during the last ten years and did so again while deciding to exit the club.<\/p>\n

According to reports, Son wanted Tottenham to get a transfer fee for him<\/a>, which is why he decided against staying for one more year, even though Thomas Frank wanted to keep him.<\/p>\n

Additionally, Son rejected advances from Barcelona and other big European clubs last season<\/a> before his one-year contract extension was activated back in January.<\/p>\n
