I love Rodrigo – Son Heung Min has no problem with Bentancur over alleged remark
Tottenham Hotspur's Rodrigo Bentancur and Son Heung Min, November 12, 2022

TOTTENHAM captain Son Heung Min has expressed his “love” for team-mate Rodrigo Bentancur, despite the Uruguay midfielder making an alleged racist remark about the South Korean over the summer.

The former Juventus player was charged last Thursday with an alleged misconduct breach by the FA in relation to a media interview.

In the clip, which emerged in June, the host of a Canal 10 show asked Bentancur to show the shirt of a Spurs player, with the 27-year-old allegedly replying: “Sonny’s? It could be Sonny’s cousin too as they all look the same.”
