Son not worried about Spurs exit talks

Cape Town - Tottenham Hotspur forward Heung-min Son is unfazed by growing speculation regarding his future at White Hart Lane.

Son joined Tottenham from Bayer Leverkusen in a £22m transfer deal, and has scored just four goals in 28 Premier League appearances in his debut season in England.

The 23-year-old has been linked with a move away from London, with coach Mauricio Pochettino reported to be ready to sell the South Korea international.

"I saw the articles but I've heard nothing about my transfer," Son told reporters.

"Should I be worried? I don't think so. I already told Tottenham that I want to play in Olympic Games, they're looking into it positively.

"I always wanted to learn first when I decided to come to Premier League, rather than do really well from the start.

"Due to injuries, my debut season was not satisfying. But I learned a lot how to manage games, myself physically. And also learned about a new culture."
