Gareth Bale has claimed Heung-min Son as the fourth member of Tottenham’s “Welsh Mafia”, with the South Korean forming part of a group to rival French trio Moussa Sissoko, Serge Aurier and Tanguy Ndombele.
An on-loan forward at Spurs recently revealed that club colleagues in north London consider his ‘WM’ goal celebration to be a nod towards the bond he has formed with fellow countrymen Ben Davies and Joe Rodon.
It is all good natured fun, with Jose Mourinho’s squad pulling in the same direction as a collective, but Bale is eager to ensure that he has numbers on his side and says Son, not Lucas Moura, is the latest to join his ranks.
