Son Heung-Min, the South Korean star, has addressed rumors of a potential winter loan move away from Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC). In an exclusive statement, Son expressed his commitment to LAFC as they gear up for the conference semifinals. He firmly stated, 'I've never discussed any winter move with any club. Such rumors are entirely unfounded.'
The 33-year-old forward, who joined LAFC in August 2025 after a successful decade with Tottenham Hotspur, is frustrated by the ongoing speculation.

Son's commitment to LAFC is unwavering, and he respects the club deeply. He said, 'I won't leave LAFC this winter or ever while I'm here. I love this club, and I have the utmost respect for everyone associated with it.'
Son understands the importance of setting the right example for his new fans in LAFC and the MLS. He acknowledged the confusion that rumors can cause, stating, 'It's understandable that fans might get confused, but those stories are not true. It could even be disrespectful to my team to even entertain such talk.'
As the 2026 World Cup approaches, Son's focus is on rest and preparation. He said, 'My offseason will be dedicated to recovery and a tailored training program to ensure I'm in peak condition for the World Cup. My commitment to LAFC and my country is absolute.'
With LAFC's playoff campaign in full swing, Son's attention is on delivering success to Los Angeles. As they prepare for the Western Conference semifinal against Vancouver Whitecaps on November 23, Son's primary goal is to help LAFC secure a spot in the MLS Cup final, scheduled for December 5.
