Heung-min Son has been a stand-out man for Tottenham Hotspur this season despite the club's tough times.

The club may sit 14th in the Premier League table, but the 27-year-old has managed to score 3 goals and assist another 3 in 9 starts and 1 substitute appearance, while another 5 goals can be added to his tally from the Champions League.

It is form such as this that has seen the South Korea international nominated for the AFC Asian International Player of the Year award:

Most Spurs fans aren't confident of many victories on the pitch due to their form, but they are certain that their star man will be coming out on top to win the award.

He comes up against Sardar Azmoun, who has 7 goals and 5 assists from 19 Russian Premier League and Champions League games for Zenit St. Petersburg, as well as Makoto Hasebe, who has played 12 games across the Europa League and Bundesliga for Eintracht Frankfurt.
