The pair clahsed after exchanging insults during training with Tolgay Arslan, who was nearby, needing treatment for a cut after accidentally being struck in the head during the melee.

Hamburg coach Thorsten Fink has blamed Rajkovic for the incident and suspended him from training with immediate effect.

According to the Bundesliga club's website, he will not join the squad on their tour of South Korea over the coming weeks while Son can also expect punishment in the form of a fine.

If and when Rajkovic, who was previously contracted to Chelsea, will return to training remains unclear.
