LAFC have confirmed the signing of Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min in a history-making MLS transfer. The Black and Gold officially unveiled their blockbuster signing at BMO Stadium just one day after Son landed in the United States. LAFC spent $26.5 million to bring the South Korean forward to Los Angeles, setting a new MLS transfer record.

Tottenham Hotspur confirmed on Wednesday that club legend Son Heung-Min will be joining MLS side LAFC. Sources told ESPN the deal is worth around $26 million, a record for MLS. That figure breaks the mark of $22 million Atlanta United FC spent last winter to acquire forward Emmanuel Latte Lath.
