— Regarding Son's recovery, I texted him after the operation. He is very upset about this situation, but I hope he will recover and play at the 2022 World Cup. I know how important it is, because I was a football player myself.

I am sure that he will be able to quickly return and play in the World Cup. Son is at home and has started his rehabilitation, Antonio Conte said.

We will remind that in the Champions League match against Marseille, Son Heung-min suffered an eye socket injury.
