Tottenham Hotspur gaffer, Antonio Conte has said his South Korean striker, Heung-min Son is the kind of man he would not mind as a son-in-law if his daughter chooses him.
Son, who is yet to show the form he displayed when he won the League’s Golden Boot last season, was also below par in Tottenham’s hard-fought 2-0 victory over newly promoted Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
The Korean international was furious after he was substituted by his Italian manager in the second half.
But Conte, speaking with reporters after the match said he has no doubts about the South Korean’s talent or his personality and will continue to back him.

He also eulogised his calm nature by stating that he would not mind giving his daughter’s hand out in marriage to Son.
Conte said, “I understand Sonny is a really sensible player.
“He’s really sensible and a top man, a really good guy. If I am to make an example, if I have to find a husband for my daughter I’d like it to be a person like him.
“In this moment maybe he’s suffering a lot that he’s not scoring…We trust him and the team-mates.
“For me, Sonny will always be a nut in my team, in my ambition of football”
