Tottenham captain Son Heung Min has announced his decision to leave the club this summer in an emotional speech.

The loving couple have been together for over seven years after Gabriela confirmed their relationship.

In an Instagram post days after Levi's birth, Gabriela wrote: "It's true: LEVI HAS ARRIVED! "And he is here to remind me every day that I chose the best partner to walk beside me, hold my hand and say that everything will be fine! "It was only me to see your look at our baby that there is no more room for fear in me!" Ever since, Levi has travelled with the family, attending football matches at various stadiums in the Premier League. 5 In January 2025, Gabriela announced that their family would be growing as she was pregnant with their second child. Their daughter Liz, was born in July 2025. 5 SunSport exclusively revealed that Gabriela asked doctors to bring the birth of their second child forward. The reason for her decision was due to the fact that Cunha did not want to miss the birth while he was on a pre-season tour in the US with Manchester United. As a result, the 26-year-old Brazilian was able to join her when she went into hospital. 5 He later linked up with United players for a flight to the US - Cunha signed for United from Wolves in June 2025 after they triggered his release clause. The Cunhas shared pictures on Instagram following the safe arrival of their daughter, Liz, alongside brother Levi. A source said: 'Gabriela knew how important it was for Matheus to be able to go on the pre-season tour to get to know his team-mates before the start of the season. 'They discussed it as a couple and the doctors agreed to book her in for an elective C-section on Monday, so Matheus could be at her side."

Eddie Howe admits Alexander Isak situation is ‘far from ideal'
Eddie Howe admits the Alexander Isak situation is 'far from ideal' but still hopes to see the unsettled star back in a Newcastle shirt after confirming the club rejected an offer from Liverpool. The 25-year-old Swede, one of the hottest properties in world football, has had his head turned by the Premier League champions' interest this summer. Isak did not travel to Asia for Newcastle's pre-season tour due to what the club called a 'minor thigh injury', only for his unhappiness to emerge along with the fact he is training at former club Real Sociedad. 'I think from my situation, I am very much removed from everything that is happening back home,' Magpies boss Howe said, as reported by The Athletic. 'I was made aware there was a bid yesterday. That bid was turned down before I heard about it. 'There are people back in England dealing with the situation. I really don't know what is going to happen next, but from our perspective, we still support Alex in every way, and my wish is still that we see him in a Newcastle shirt again.' Newcastle head back from Asia after Sunday's friendly against Tottenham in Seoul, where Howe revealed he learned Isak was training in Spain with his former club through the media. 'I know where he is through the media, so I think from that perspective it's difficult for me to go into any detail,' the said. 'The situation is far from ideal. It is quite complex. I think that is all I have got to say.'
