Antonio Conte: I don't see any problem with Son Heung-min

Tottenham manager Antonio Conte insists he is not concerned with Son Heung-min's form this season.

Son

scored 23 goals last season in the Premier League and shared the golden boot with Mohamed Salah but he has failed to score this season for his team.

"You know very well we're talking about a really, really important player for me and for the club,"

Conte

said.

"For sure, I think Sonny in the last three games had chances to score but there's a moment where you're a bit lucky or a bit unlucky.

"I think [there is] no problem with Sonny's performance. His attitude and commitment are always up very high. I'm happy with his performance and I don't see any problems with him.

"For sure, you know very well when you're a striker you like to score, and when you score and win you're happy.

"But at the same time, we always have to put the club winning before the interests of every single player.

"But it's not a problem. I repeat he's an important player, last season he scored 23 goals... No problem. I'm sure when he goes to score, he will gain the right confidence.”

Conte does not rule out more signings before the transfer window closes.

"If there are players that go out, we need players to come in,"

he added.

"The club knows very well the importance for me to have a squad, to have a couple of players in every role.”

Spurs

will face Eintracht Frankfurt, Sporting CP, and Marseille in the Champions League and Conte believes they have a good chance of progressing from the group.

"You know very well we're talking about the most important and most difficult competition in Europe, maybe in the world,"

Conte said.

"You find the best teams in the world in this competition. In Our group, I see balance. I see balance in our group.

"For sure our target is to try to go to the next round, this has to be clear. I think we gained the possibility to play this important competition and we want to enjoy, to play good football and possibly to go far."
