Son Heung-min has agreed to a contract with Los Angeles FC, finalising his move to Major League Soccer after a decade at Tottenham Hotspur.
The South Korean forward is joining LAFC days after he announced his decision to leave Tottenham last week.
LAFC will introduce Son at a news conference later on Wednesday, but the club showed the forward on the stadium video board late in the first half as he waved to roaring fans thrilled by their team’s landmark acquisition.
The club reportedly paid a transfer fee of more than $20 million, which could end up being the highest ever for an MLS move.
Son scored 173 goals in 454 competitive appearances for the spurs while rising to global prominence with his combination of speed, playmaking skill and finishing acumen.
The 33-year-old was given a guard of honor from both teams and tearfully exiting in the second half while nearly 65,000 fans roared.
He helped Tottenham to its first European trophy in decades by winning the Europa League in May.
