Son Heung-min ISN'T world class - claims his FATHER, as he insists the Tottenham star must 'work harder' and 'do 10 per cent better' despite winning the Golden Boot... and even hints he could have to leave Spurs to play 'in one of the world's top clubs'

Son Woong-jung, the father of Son Heung-min, has said that the Tottenham star must 'work harder' and be '10 per cent better' to become a 'world class' player.

Son was the joint winner of last season's golden boot award after scoring a brace in Tottenham's comprehensive win at Norwich City to take his goal tally to 23.

As a result, Son become the first Asian player to have claimed the award. He also became the third Spurs player to win the Golden Boot in the Premier League era.
