Son was due to train with Tottenham Hotspur on March 16, but chose to

return home after the Spurs' training centre was shut down and the

Premier League suspended and arrived on Saturday, Yonhap reported.

Son is required by the South Korean government to again self-isolate

for 14 days as an arrival from Europe.

Britain had recorded more than 19,000 coronavirus cases and more than

1,200 deaths, according to figures from the country's Department of

Health and Social Care on Sunday.
