Despite the loss to Brighton over the weekend, Tottenham Hotspur has g mostly rediscovered the form that brought them back into the realm of Champions League qualification. Much of their recent success can be attributed to the tandem of Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son, who have provided copious amounts of goalscoring glory as the team climbs back up the table. In a hilarious comment over the weekend, Kane revealed that he and Son have an incredibly strong relationship off the pitch, going as far as to admit that he spends more time with Son than he does his own wife.

Speaking to Canal+, Kane revealed what he thinks his wife's opinion on his relationship with the South Korean winger is, saying “She hasn't said anything, but she could be [jealous]. I probably spend more time Son than I do my wife at the moment, to be honest. But yeah, we have a great relationship off the pitch, and obviously I think that shows on the pitch as well.”
The on-pitch connection between Kane and Son is quite literally unparalleled throughout Premier League history. Across their playing careers at Tottenham, the duo has combined for 40 goals, 4 more than the next highest tandem in Premier League history. Chelsea legends Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba teamed up for 36 goals together, playing alongside one another from 2004-12.
Kane and Son always seem to be in sync, and perhaps it's because they've become inseparable off the pitch, not just on it. So long as Tottenham is the home to these two goalscoring threats, their attack will be in good hands, as clearly the chemistry is at an all-time high between the two key players.
