Los Angeles, United States: South Korean star Son Heung-min has not even been officially announced as joining Los Angeles FC of MLS, but excited fans are already waiting to welcome him.
ESPN and The Athletic report that Son, who left Tottenham Hotspur last weekend, will sign with LAFC for an MLS-record transfer fee of $26 million.
LAFC on Tuesday night announced a news conference for a "major announcement" on Wednesday at 2 pm local time (2100 GMT) that would seem to be the unveiling of Son.
After press reports about Son's possible arrival on Tuesday at Los Angeles International Airport, about 40 fans of Son went to see if they could get an autograph or photograph or even a glimpse of their idol.
They were unable to see Son, however, after his sendoff in South Korea a few hours earlier.
