Tottenham fans will enjoy Gareth Bale’s gesture to Heung-min Son this week
Tottenham Hotspur fans will love the small gesture club legend Gareth Bale made to current Spurs captain Heung-min Son this week during a visit to Adidas HQ.
Fans will always remember Gareth Bale’s time at Spurs. Although the early part of his career for the Lilywhites was difficult, the Welsh man later found his feet.
One standout moment was the Champions League matchup against Inter Milan, where the Spurs winger scored a hattrick in the first leg of the tie at San Siro, and then bagged two assists in the return leg.
The talented winger’s quality soon caught the eye of Spanish Giants Real Madrid. In the summer of 2013 for a then-record transfer fee of £85.3m, Bale left England for Spain.
Gareth Bale still has former Tottenham teammate Heung-min Son in his heart
Recently the former Spurs man visited Adidas HQ. During his visit, he showed his love for Tottenham Hotspur and their current captain Heung-min Son.
Bale was asked to add his photo to a board of Adidas athletes during his visit. Of course, out of every single person on the board, he decided to place his directly alongside former Tottenham teammate, Heung-min Son.
Bale, who has since retired from football, after playing over 500 matches, has been spending his time pursuing his hobbies. His exciting visit to Addidas HQ earlier this year, was for him to have a look at the Addidas golf lineup.

Although Bale has retired, Heung-min Son continues to represent Tottenham Hotspur. Despite having a season below his usual standards, the Lilywhites’ captain has still hit double figures for goals and assists – scoring ten and assisting ten.

The 32-year-old winger would be hoping to bring some silverware back to north London this season as Spurs remain in the Europa League.
