🚨 BREAKING: Son confirms decision to leave Tottenham this summer
Tottenham star Son Heung-min has publicly confirmed his decision to leave the club this summer. The South Korean sensation, who has been synonymous with the club since arriving from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2015, is looking ahead to his next chapter amid heavy speculation surrounding a move to MLS outfit LAFC. Speaking alongside manager Thomas Frank during a pre-conference ahead of Spurs' pre-season clash with Newcastle, Son has lifted the veil on his next steps. "I just want to share information that I have decided to leave this club this summer," Son said. "Respectfully, the club is helping me with this decision." "It was the most difficult decision I have made in my career," he continued. "The main reason is I have achieved everything I can at Tottenham. I need a new environment for a fresh challenge." "I came to north London as a kid. A boy came to London who couldn't speak English. I leave this club as a man. Thanks to all the Spurs fans who have given me so much love." Son is now in line to become one of the biggest stars to ever ply their trade in North America. 📸 Eurasia Sport Images - 2025 Getty Images

Jhoan Durán earns a save in his Philly debut as Philadelphia rallies to beat the Tigers 5-4
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jhoan Durán earned a save in his Philadelphia debut after Bryson Stott beat a throw to first base and was ruled safe on an overturned review call for the go-ahead RBI single in the eighth inning as the Phillies beat the Detroit Tigers 5-4 on Friday night. The Phillies trailed 3-0 in the seventh and 4-3 in the eighth, rallying each time against the AL Central leaders and setting the stage for Durán's ballyhooed debut. With former WWE star The Undertaker's gong setting the soundtrack, Durán entered with only iPhone lights on in the ballpark and flames on the big screen to create the dramatic mood. Duran did the rest in his first appearance since his trade-deadline acquisition from Minnesota. He retired the side in order in the ninth inning — on four pitches — for his 17th save. The Phillies rallied without slugger Bryce Harper, ejected in the seventh inning for arguing a called third strike on a check swing. Gleyber Torres hit a three-run homer off Phillies starter Ranger Suárez in the third inning for the early lead. Stott had a sacrifice fly and Trea Turner and Kyle Schwarber added run-scoring singles against Detroit's bullpen to make it 3-all. Wenceel Pérez hit a solo homer off Phillies reliver Orion Kerkering (6-4) in the eighth to give Detroit the 4-3 lead. Otto Kemp tied the game at 4 with an RBI double and the Phillies caught a break with two outs when Edmundo Sosa's slow roller in front of the plate was snagged by reliever Brenan Hanifee (3-3). His wild throw pulled first baseman Spencer Torkelson off the bag, allowing Sosa to reach and give the Phillies new life. Stott was ruled out on a grounder into the hole at short, but replay confirmed he was safe, giving Philadelphia a 5-4 lead. Key moment Hanifee's error doomed Detroit. Key stat Torres had three hits Up next The Phillies send ace RHP Zack Wheeler (9-4, 2.56 ERA) to the mound against Tigers LHP Tarik Skubal (10-3, 2.09). ___ AP MLB:

Mabrey and Charles help Connecticut beat short-handed New York 78-62
UNCASVILLE, Conn. (AP) — Marina Mabrey scored 18 points and Tina Charles added 15 to help the Connecticut Sun beat the short-handed New York Liberty 78-62 on Friday night. It was the fourth consecutive loss for the Liberty (17-10), who were missing Breanna Stewart. The star forward is recovering from a bone bruise in her right knee. New York also was without Nyara Sabally (knee) and Kennedy Burke (right calf strain) and only had eight healthy players. The team is in the midst of its longest losing streak since 2022 when the franchise had five-game and seven-game skids. Emma Meesseman joined the squad on Friday and the 2019 WNBA Finals MVP suited up, but didn't play as she was still getting acclimated to the squad. Coach Sandy Brondello expects her to be in the lineup on Sunday when the teams play again in Connecticut. For the Sun (5-21), it was a big victory for a young team looking to establish its identity. Reserves Olivia Nelson-Ododa and Leila Lacan each had 16. Connecticut trailed 20-15 after the first quarter before getting hot in the second. The Sun took a 44-37 lead at the break when Charles hit a jumper just before the halftime buzzer. The Sun shot 50% from the field in the opening 20 minutes. The team kept it going in the third and extended its advantage to 56-46 on Mabrey's 3-pointer with 3:36 left in the period. New York, which was playing its sixth game in 11 days, got within 69-62 on Stephanie Talbot's layup with 5:08 left. But those were the last points the team scored. Sabrina Ionescu scored 23 points and Jonquel Jones add 14 for New York, which had 21 turnovers. ___ AP WNBA:
