Jose’s latest on Heung-Min Son

Jose Mourinho has ruled Heung-Min Son out of our UEFA Europa League trip to Dinamo Zagreb, and rates him ‘very doubtful’ for Sunday’s match at Aston Villa.

The South Korea star was forced off early in the north London derby at the weekend. Sprinting after a pass, Sonny pulled up clutching the back of his left leg and departed after treatment on 19 minutes.

Speaking to us on Wednesday afternoon before flying out to Croatia, Jose told us: “Sonny has no chance for this match, no chance at all. I even feel it’s very doubtful for the weekend.

“I believe he will need the international break to recover totally.”
