Pundit claims in-form Spurs star would start for Liverpool, Man City

Ex-Tottenham striker Darren Bent has claimed current Spurs attacker Heung-Min Son would get into any team in the Premier League.

The Korean winger has been in fine form and scored a hat-trick last time out in the 4-0 win over Aston Villa.

The goals at Villa Park take Son to 17 in the Premier League so far this season, a total only bettered by Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.

He has linked up well with new signing Dejan Kulusevski and Harry Kane to build a formidable front three for Antonio Conte’s side as they look to secure a top four finish this season.

Son’s form has been that impressive that ex-Spurs man Bent now believes he would get into every Premier League team’ starting XI, including title contenders Manchester City and Liverpool.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Bent said: “Yes, I think he does [get into any Premier League side] now. The only exception was I always used to think would he get ahead of Sadio Mane?

“Probably a couple of seasons ago, not last season because Mane had a bit of a down year, but Heung-Min Son steps up all the time.

“He scores goals, creates goals, and can finish with either foot.

“I think on that left-hand side he would get into any Premier League team. City as well.

“He carries such a goal-threat.
