Son Heung-min will soon return to Tottenham Hotspur after his South Korea side were surprisingly dumped out of the Asian Cup on Tuesday. Always among the favourites to win the competition, South Korea fell 2-0 to Jordan in one of the biggest surprises of the tournament. Qatar or Iran await in the final. While an obvious blow to Son and South Korea, Spurs fans will undoubtedly be keen to see their star forward back at club level slightly sooner than expected.

The 750 objects, which date from the 8th century BC and the medieval period, include an Etruscan three-legged bronze table, marble busts of men from the imperial age, and wall paintings that are believed to be from the area of Mt. Vesuvius. The Culture Ministry valued the items at 12 million euro ($12.79 million), according to a statement. They were in the possession of a London company in liquidation, Symes Ltd, owned by dealer Robin Symes. “The most complex moment was when the liquidators showed their availability (to return the objects), which was a willingness that implied a demonstration of illegality,” said Carabinieri Cmdr.
