Son reveals he's sent text message to Andre Gomes to apologise for his role in causing horror injury

Tottenham winger Heung-min Son has revealed that he has contacted Andre Gomes to apologise for the late tackle which left the Everton midfielder with a career-threatening injury in a Premier League clash last weekend.

Gomes underwent surgery for a fractured dislocation to his right ankle at the start of the week after being stretched off the pitch during the Toffees' 1-1 draw with Spurs on Sunday.

The 26-year-old is expected to make a full recovery, but Everton and Tottenham players were visibility distressed after witnessing the horrific incident up close at Goodison Park.
