Tottenham boss Mourinho admits Son facing quarantine spell

Tottenham ace Heung-min Son will be forced to self-isolate for two weeks on his return from South Korea over continued fears surrounding the coronavirus.

Son was given permission to return to his homeland last month to undergo surgery for the broken arm he sustained in the 3-2 win over Aston Villa on February 16.

Boss Jose Mourinho said: “I think the normal advice comes from the authorities, comes from the government. I'm not going to make any comment, I'm nobody, I'm no specialist.

"I just get the legal advice and what my club gets from authorities, and of course we follow everything.

"That's why I'm saying that Sonny when he's back from Seoul we will have to follow the protocols and we are not going to have him immediately here.

Where he will be?

“I don't know how to be specific with that, I just know we have to follow some safety protocols."
