• Midfielder could be banned for up to 12 domestic games
• Son: ‘We are all human, make mistakes and learn’

Tottenham captain Son Heung-min has expressed his “love” for his teammate Rodrigo Bentancur, despite the midfielder making an alleged racist remark about the South Korea forward over the summer.

The Uruguay international was charged by the Football Association last Thursday with an alleged misconduct breach in relation to a media interview. In the clip, which emerged in June, the host of a Canal 10 show asked Bentancur to show the shirt of a Spurs player, with the 27-year-old allegedly replying: “Sonny’s? It could be Sonny’s cousin too as they all look the same.”
