Ronaldo fan Son Heung-min: I can’t wait to meet Messi!

October 9th. Son Heung-min, the first Korean player to leave the five major leagues and play for Los Angeles FC in the American Major League, has not played against Messi in the American Major League because he has just arrived this season. He is particularly looking forward to playing against the king of football because he can worship him. Even though Son Heung-min is a Ronaldo fan, he said he can't wait to see Messi.

Sun Xingmin was interviewed recently and was asked about Messi. The reporter asked Son Heung-min that he is now playing in the American Major League, and Messi is also in the American Major League. What does this super giant mean to him? As a fan of Cristiano Ronaldo, Son Heung-min will not join the Major League Soccer because of Messi. He also said this, but as the world champion, Messi will naturally make Son Heung-min yearn for it, so he also said that Messi playing in the Major League Soccer will indeed affect his joining the Major League Soccer.

Son Heung-min said that the reason Messi's playing in the Major Leagues affects him is because Messi is the first player in history to join the Major Leagues and make the Major Leagues more influential. You know, players who have played in the United States (not necessarily Major League Baseball, but earlier leagues) include Pele, Beckenbauer, Cruyff, Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Beckham, Lampard, Gerrard, etc., but Son Heung-min said Messi was the first, which makes sense. Pele and the others did not play in the American Major League. Of course, the American league and even the team that Pele joined are now gone. Super giants such as Rooney, Beckham and Ibrahimovic are obviously far less influential than Messi.

Son Heung-min said that he also wants to transform the American Major League like Messi, and there is no need to hide this. However, Son Heung-min's status is not as good as Rooney, Beckham and Ibrahimovic, so it is naturally difficult to replicate Messi's feat. The news that 1.5 million jerseys broke Messi's record is also fake. Son Heung-min said that he can't wait to watch Messi, but since they are not teammates, they have to fight independently and both want to win.
