Son, 30, suffered the injury during Tottenham’s 2-1 win in Marseille in the Champions League on Tuesday.
“Following surgery, Son will commence rehabilitation with our medical staff and we shall update supporters further in due course,” said a Spurs statement.
South Korea’s first game in the World Cup is against Uruguay on 24 November.
