Heading into the West Ham game this weekend, all eyes are on Son Heung-min's potential return. What's the latest Tottenham injury news involving Sonny?

In Tottenham's first UEFA Europa League fixture against Qarabag, Son Heung-min suffered an unfortunate injury. At the time, it was difficult to decipher how serious his injury would be but before the October international break, he missed five games for Spurs.

Furthermore, Son Heung-min was not involved for South Korea. This is despite being his nation's star player.

So, of course, fans hope that he will return for the London derby. What's the latest Tottenham injury news?

In his own words, Postecoglou said: "Sonny is good. He's worked hard these two weeks. He was obviously very disappointed to miss playing for his national team, but I think it's been good for him these two weeks. He's worked really hard, had a good solid training week and yeah he can't wait to get back out there. He's good to go."
