LONDON
\nTottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min says players must remember they are living their dreams by playing in the Premier League, even if the demanding schedule is taking its toll.
\nDomestic leagues and UEFA have been trying to cram in fixtures before the World Cup starts on Nov 20.
\nSpurs are due to play 10 matches before the tournament begins in Qatar, starting with Wednesday\u2019s Champions League game against Eintracht Franfurt.
\nSon, 30, said travelling for matches and spending time away from home can be difficult but it was part of life as a professional player. \u201cWhen you think about, when you were a kid what was your dream? Probably everyone is going to say playing in the Premier League,\u201d Son told the London Evening Standard.
\n\u201cSo we\u2019re living the dream and we can never forget these moments. I know there are tired moments and it\u2019s mentally and physically really difficult.
\n\u201cBut we were born to do this, we love to do this and we should enjoy it. And obviously the more you enjoy it, the more happiness will be here. I know it\u2019s tough moments but we should bring more happiness and it will be more enjoyable.\u201d
\nSon will lead South Korea at the World Cup, where they are in Group H alongside Portugal, Ghana and Uruguay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
