Heung-min Son returning to Spurs training next week

Tottenham striker Heung-min Son is returning to training next week.

The London Evening Standard says Son will return to Tottenham's training ground on Monday after staying away for two weeks amid coronavirus fears.

Jose Mourinho and his staff were on Friday afternoon finalising a new training schedule for the fortnight ahead after professional football in the UK was postponed until at least April 3 over the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Although the entire first-team squads at Arsenal and Chelsea have gone into self-isolation, Spurs trained as normal on Friday morning, with no players showing signs of symptoms. The club has told staff to work from home where possible, however, and at least one employee has been tested after showing symptoms, with the result negative.

The club's contingent of injured players, including Harry Kane, will continue rehabilitation as normal, with Son set to join their ranks at the start of the next week.
