Tottenham striker Son joins Twitter after two-goal Leicester display

Tottenham star Son Heung-min has joined Twitter.

The South Korean attacker had previously resisted joining the social media company.

His account, @Sonny7, was launched on Tuesday following his two-goal effort in the 3-1 win over Leicester City on Sunday.

Son already has over 142 thousand followers just a day after launching his page.

He wrote on his first Twitter post: "Hello, my name is Heung-Min Son. I finally opened my official Twitter! I hope to be able to share more fun and happy news here with fans in the future :) Please look forward to it."
