Son Heung-min Announces He's Leaving Spurs Amid Links To LAFC
After 10 years with Tottenham, captain Son Heung-min announced on Saturday that he plans to leave the English Premier League club. Son, who helped Spurs win the Europa League title in May, said it was "the most difficult" decision of his career and added the club was supporting him as he looks to find another team, with Los Angeles FC a possible landing spot. The 33-year-old South Korea international will start against Newcastle in a preseason friendly Sunday in Seoul in what could be his final match with the team. Son, who scored 173 goals in 454 competitive appearances for Tottenham, opened the news conference by announcing he has "decided to leave this club in this summer" and that Spurs are "helping me to my decisions." "I came to north London as a kid, 23 years old, very young age, a young boy came to London who even didn't speak English and leaving this club as a grown man is a very, very proud moment," said Son, who fought back tears during his announcement. "So I just want to say thank you to all of the Spurs fans," he added, "that gave me so much love and felt like it was my home. It was one of the toughest decisions I ever made.... But I think it's the right time to make this decision." Son was asked in Korean about his future playing plans, and he replied: "I don't think I have an answer yet." He has been heavily linked with a move to LAFC, and there is reported interest from Saudi Arabian clubs. Son also confirmed in Korean that he would play at the World Cup next summer in North America. In May, Son finally won his first title in Europe when Tottenham defeated Manchester United in the Europa League final — the club's first major trophy since 2008. After that match, he said: "I felt the pressure. I wanted it so badly. It finally happened, and I can sleep easy now." Son added that the team's recent success was a factor in his decision. "Winning the Europa League made me feel I had achieved everything I could here," he said. "I need a new environment for a fresh challenge." Son had been one of the biggest stars of the Premier League as he and Harry Kane became a formidable attacking partnership. Tottenham reached the Champions League final in 2019, losing to Liverpool. After Kane's departure to Bayern Munich in 2023, Son was made captain by former head coach Ange Postecoglou. Son a 'Spurs legend' Thomas Frank succeeded Postecoglou in June and the Danish coach paid tribute to Son on Saturday. "He is truly a Spurs legend in every aspect," Frank said. "One of the best players to ever play in the Premier League, in my opinion, as a winger. I think it is probably the perfect timing, going out on a high." Son is No. 5 on Tottenham's all-time goalscoring list, led by Kane (280 goals). Among other impressive stats, Son's 333 Premier League appearances is second-most in club history, trailing only Hugo Lloris (361). Later in the news conference, Son reiterated he has not decided on his next club. But he said next year's World Cup is his No. 1 priority for his home country. "I think I can share more about my future after tomorrow's game once things become more certain," he said. "My most important priority right now is the World Cup. It's likely to be my last World Cup and I want to give everything I have in that environment. I want to be able to play football happily, which I think will play the biggest role in my future decision-making. I am still trying to organize my thoughts around that."

Lighting the Future: Why Gobo Projectors Are the Unexpected Stars of Outdoor Branding in 2025
Let's get one thing straight: in a world where everything is plastered on screens—from our wrists to our refrigerators—it's kind of wild that the coolest branding tool in 2025 isn't a screen at all. It's light. Specifically, gobo projectors. Yeah, I know—sounds like some sci-fi gadget Tony Stark would casually build in his garage. But trust me, these projection powerhouses are very real, very stylish, and making waves in everything from outdoor advertising to AI-driven public art. Once the domain of haunted houses and dusty theaters, gobo projectors are having a serious glow-up. They're now lighting up smart cities, festivals, eco-resorts—even the sides of entire skyscrapers. And if you're a brand trying to make an impact without building another flashy LED screen, gobo tech is the unsung hero you didn't know you needed. Let's break down the best of the best—and spoiler alert: the number one pick comes from a rising company that's absolutely crushing it right now, Innaya Store. You ever walk past a building at night and see a glowing logo so crisp it looks Photoshopped onto the wall? That was probably the HD1200. This beast of a projector is turning the game on its head—and it's no wonder people are calling it the top gobo projector of the year. It's got the kind of brightness that makes your brand visible from across the street—or across the parking lot, even if it's raining sideways. With over 4,000 lumens, interchangeable lenses, and IP65 waterproofing (translation: weather-proof beast), the HD1200 is built for serious outdoor domination. Whether you're launching a luxury car or hosting a music festival in the woods, this is the projector that makes people pull out their phones and say, 'Wait— how'd they do that ?' Honestly, if you're trying to be unforgettable, this is your move. And yes, I may have used it at my cousin's wedding. No regrets. Think of this one as your go-to SUV. It's tough, it's dependable, and while it doesn't scream for attention like the HD1200, it'll get the job done without breaking a sweat. Made with die-cast aluminum and built for long-term installs, this one's perfect for parks, festivals, and permanent installations where you just want something to work—rain or shine, night after night. Bonus: the passive cooling system means no noisy fans. Which, if you've ever tried to project next to a yoga retreat or a TED-style talk in a forest, matters . This one is huge . Literally. The GOLUX Plus 1000 can project up to 300 meters—which is basically the size of your average skyscraper or, say, a small moon (okay, I'm exaggerating, but you get the point). Perfect for stadiums, government buildings, or any place where subtlety isn't part of the vibe, this projector is pure spectacle. That said, it's bulky, power-hungry, and best reserved for big-budget operations. Definitely not the one you toss in the backseat for a pop-up market. Now here's one for the tree huggers and the budget watchers. The EcoBright is solar-powered, silent, and perfect for eco-resorts, smart trails, or any brand that wants to go green and glow bright. I've personally seen it used to project wayfinding signs on a national park trail at dusk—no wires, no emissions, just clean, beautiful light. Let's just say this one gets bonus points for being both sustainable and functional. It's basically the Prius of gobo projectors (if the Prius looked this cool). Here's where things get fun. The FX Series adds motion to your visuals—spinning logos, dancing arrows, animated patterns. It's not the brightest in the lineup, but it knows how to make an entrance. I saw this used to project a rotating galaxy onto a tree canopy at a night market, and I swear it made the churros taste better. For close-range activations, immersive pop-ups, and anything experiential, this is a rock-solid choice. Let's face it—people are over static billboards and 2D signage. We want interaction. We want experiences. We want to be wowed. Gobo projectors offer: Low energy use (especially with LED or solar models) (especially with LED or solar models) Easy setup and programming and programming Surprising versatility —walls, sidewalks, trees, tents, you name it —walls, sidewalks, trees, tents, you name it Major Instagram appeal And unlike LED walls, you don't need a permit, a forklift, and a team of five to get started. In an era where digital ads get blocked and attention spans are shorter than a TikTok soundbite, a glowing logo on a sidewalk just works . We're living in a time when the line between digital and physical is practically non-existent. And brands that win are the ones that create moments worth remembering. Whether it's projecting a logo onto a mountainside, lighting up a trail with real-time quotes, or turning a storefront into an interactive art piece, gobo projectors are quietly becoming one of the most powerful outdoor tools of the decade. And leading that charge? You guessed it: Innaya Store. With innovations like the HD1200 and EcoBright 50W, they're not just selling hardware—they're selling possibility. So if you're ready to light up your brand, literally—this is your sign. TIME BUSINESS NEWS
