SON HEUNG-MIN contacted police after a man and woman attempted to blackmail him in South Korea, according to reports.
The Tottenham star was allegedly approached by a woman claiming she was pregnant with his child.
A Seoul police station confirmed it had arrested a woman in her 20s on suspicion of extortion.
A man has also been arrested on suspicion of attempted extortion, with the pair claimed to have approached Son demanding money in exchange for staying silent, according to Yonhap News.
Son, 32, does not have a wife or child, and he reportedly contacted police to file a complaint last week.
The pair reportedly attempted to extract several hundred million won from the Tottenham ace.
Son’s legal team revealed the woman claimed she fell pregnant with his child last June.
Son has previously dated Korean pop stars Bang Min-ah and Yoo So-young, but he stated he had no plans to settle down until he has retired from football.
He said in 2019: “My father says this and I agree, as well.
“When you marry, the number one will be family, wife and kids, and then football.
“I want to make sure that while I play at the top level, football can be number one.
“You don’t know how long you can play at the top level. When you retire, or when you are 33 or 34, you can still have a long life with your family.”
