New Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Lucas Bergvall has said that Son Heung-Min is better than Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland.

The trio are three of the top players in the Premier League. While Son and Salah play on the flanks, for Spurs and Liverpool respectively, Haaland is a centre-forward for reigning treble winners Manchester City.

Bergvall arrived at Spurs last month from Djurgardens in a transfer worth €10 million (as per The Boyhotspur). The teenager told Swedish Youtuber SportTouchen in a Tiktok video posted by a fan that his Spurs captain is better than Salah, Haaland and even Kylian Mbappe.

The Swede, though, picked his retired compatriot Zlatan Ibrahimovic over Son. Here's the video:

Son and Salah are potent goalscorers in the Premier League and have been in good form this season.

Salah - back from a recent injury layoff - has 19 goals and 10 assists in 28 games across competitions for a Liverpool side atop the standings after 25 games. In fact, the Reds are alive in three other competitions as they seek a quadruple in their manager Jurgen Klopp's last season in charge.

Meanwhile, Son hasn't been as prolific but has been effective nonetheless. In 23 games across competitions, he has 12 goals and six assists.
