Spurs defeated Manchester United in the final in Bilbao, with Brennan Johnson scoring the winning goal. Thousands of fans celebrated in North London after the win, marking a successful season under manager Ange Postecoglou.
After the final whistle, Maddison and Son shared an emotional moment on the pitch, both happy to have won their first European trophy together. Maddison spoke about Son's kindness and how much he admires him as a person.
"We had a moment on the pitch at the end and I just said to him how much I love and admire him," Maddison said. "He's one of the best humans I've ever met. I love how he treats everyone, how he treats my family, how he is with my children. He's just a brilliant man and I'm so happy for him."
Tottenham's European success comes after a disappointing domestic season, where they finished 17th in the Premier League with 22 defeats. Next season, they will compete in the Champions League and will need to improve their form to repeat their Europa League success.
