<p>According to the Associated Press, via <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2024/oct/11/son-heung-mins-father-fined-for-violating-child-we/" target="_blank">Washington Times</a>, the Tottenham star's dad, Son Woong-jung, and <a href="https://tribuna.com/en/news/football-2024-10-12-son-heungmins-father-and-brother-reportedly-fined-for-child-abuse-in-south-korea/" target="_blank">brother, Heung-yun Son</a>, were fined €2,200 (£1,683) by the Chuncheon District Court for the violation at the Son Football Academy in Chuncheon, South Korea.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The report adds the parents of a young player claim their son was hit by one of the two academy coaches with a corner flag and subjected to verbal abuse. Son's father, who is a director at the academy, has reportedly denied any wrongdoing but offered an apology and promised to evaluate his coaching methods.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The academy opened in 2021, with South Korean international and Spurs forward Son reportedly funding much of the €15m ($11.4m) project. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Son, who is currently out with a hamstring injury, will hope to be back for Tottenham's next Premier League game at home to London rivals West Ham on October 19. However, the 32-year-old may be an injury doubt as he was ruled out of South Korea's fixtures World Cup Qualifiers against Jordan and Iraq this month.</p>
