That aside, what is important to you folks here is that Spurs have released Son Heung-Min for the tournament. He will miss the first 4 weeks of the premier league season. They are banking on him winning the gold medal which means he will be exempt from military duty in 2020.

I heard that he has until he's 35 to do that service? I don't really know about how that works and what the requirements are though. Spurs signed him through 2023 this summer though, so presumably they have some kind of clause relating to this either way.
