Ola Aina wants Tottenham star Son Heung-min to pay the bill for the injury he inflicted on him

Super Eagles and Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina has shared a tongue-in-cheek post of him having dental treatment and joked he wanted to send an invoice to Tottenham's Son Heung-min after his side's 3-1 loss on Sunday.

Nuno Espirito Santo's side were beaten in north London with Aina playing at left-back, but after the game, the player shared an image of what appeared to be a damaged tooth that looked to be bent out of shape.

He took a video of his teeth and shared it on Snapchat, suggesting that Son was to blame following a challenge during the game.

Aina said: 'Mr Son of Tottenham Hotspur where do I send the invoice to when I get this fixed?' followed by another post saying: 'Someone shouts Mr Son, he must think I'm on the same bread as him,' accompanied by a laughing emoji.

 He then shared a picture of him sitting in a dentist's chair having treatment before uploading a photo of Son.

He said: 'This man is wanted!! Last seen in the N17 region @ 20:00 last night. Tell him I just wanna chat km [kiss my teeth].'

It is not clear which incident Aina is referring to - after he played the full 90 minutes at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Spurs had taken the lead during the game through a Murillo own goal before Forest equalised thanks to Chris Wood - who polished off a fine counterattack.

Tottenham defender Mickey van de Ven then put the home side back in front with a thunderbolt from outside the box.

Pedro Porro then made it 3-1 with a spectacular volley to seal a win that puts Spurs fourth ahead of Aston Villa.

For Forest, it was their first defeat in four games and leaves them hovering above the relegation zone in 17th place.

Aina only joined Nottingham Forest last summer having spent the previous season with Serie A club Torino.

Now 27, the Nigeria international began his career with Chelsea but struggled to break into the first team - making just six senior appearances.

The Blues had loaned him out to Hull City and then Torino - before the Italian side opted to make it permanent in 2019-20. He played 113 times for the Turin team and had one season on loan at Fulham in 2020-21.
