King Charles’ Awkward Exchange with Son Heung-min at Tottenham Stadium
During a recent visit to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, King Charles had an awkward interaction with star player Son Heung-min while club chairman Daniel Levy looked on.
As the King toured the stadium, he encountered Son and engaged him in conversation about the team’s upcoming match and current form. With Levy observing nearby, Charles asked Son if Tottenham had good chances against Manchester United in their next game.
Son replied hopefully but then had to carefully navigate the King’s question about whether the team was “in good order at the moment.” The player diplomatically responded that they were “in a difficult moment but working hard.”
The exchange highlighted Tottenham’s struggles this season, as they currently sit 14th in the Premier League table after a string of poor results. The presence of chairman Levy added an extra layer of tension to the conversation.
