The British media outlet GiveMeSport announced on the 22nd (local time), “The EPL is a soccer league where the highest level of soccer players worldwide compete. Asian soccer players are also showing great skills in the EPL. We are revealing the top 3 greatest Asian soccer players in the history of the EPL.”
They continued, “Park Ji Sung has been named the greatest Asian soccer player in the history of the EPL. He achieved an impressive record of winning the EPL title four times and finishing runner-up three times during his seven seasons with Manchester United from 2005-2006. On the other hand, another top Asian soccer star, Son Heung Min (Tottenham), has yet to win a league title. Park Ji Sung and Son Heung Min are the best Asian soccer players. However, what made the difference was their winning records.”
They added, “Following Park Ji Sung, Son Heung Min has been named the second greatest Asian soccer player in the history of the EPL. He has set records that are not only difficult for Asian soccer players to approach but also for world-class players, such as the EPL’s first double-digit scorer, the Goal of the Year award, the first player to score four goals in a single game, leading the EPL in scoring, and surpassing 100 career EPL goals. Son Heung Min has emerged as a prominent soccer player representing Tottenham. He is one of Tottenham’s key players.”
The media outlet stated, “Son Heung Min is demonstrating remarkable prowess, stepping up to fill the void left by Harry Kane at Bayern Munich. Following Son Heung Min, Shinji Okazaki (Sint-Truidense VV) was named the third greatest Asian soccer player in the history of the EPL. Shinji Okazaki is a soccer player known for his vigorous activity and proactive defense participation. Despite his short stature as a forward, he is proficient in scoring goals with headers.”
