He's arguably one of the hottest players in the English Premier League right now.
Tottenham Hotspur's South Korean forward Son Heung-min scored twice again last night,... giving him his 10th goal of the season.
And, this comes despite him missing several matches for the London club due to his appearance at the Asian Games.
Lee Seung-jae has more.
After scoring two goals against Everton on Sunday,... Son Heung-min took to the pitch against Bournemouth on Wednesday evening,... and added two more goals to his tally,... as Tottenham Hotspur thrashed Bournemouth 5-nil.
It gave him his 9th and 10th goals of the season in all competitions,... the fastest he's reached double digits in his four seasons in the English Premier League.
During his debut 2015-2016 season for Tottenham,... Son scored eight goals.
He scored his 10th goal on January 29th during the 2016-2017 season,... and he hit the same mark on January 5th during the 2017-2018 season.
Despite scoring only three goals up until November,... Son's sizzling December has seen him score seven goals, including six in the EPL.
With 6 goals and 2 assists in league matches in December,... the South Korean international has a good chance to grab the EPL Player of the Month honors.
With some help from a red hot Son Heung-min,... Spurs are on a 5 match winning streak,... and have been victorious in 12 of their last 14 matches.
And with Leicester upsetting Manchester City on Wednesday,... Tottenham leapfrog them into second in the league standings.
