Kim Byung-ji (54), CEO of Gangwon FC (hereinafter referred to as Gangwon), announced his "direct" position on the rumor that Yang Min-hyuk (18) will transfer to the Premier League.
Yang Min-hyuk, one of the best prospects in Korea, is a "hot potato" who is heating up the domestic soccer community these days. As a semi-professional contract, he scored five goals and three assists in 19 games this season, while wearing a Gangwon uniform, erasing concerns over Gangwon's U-22 and being reborn as the crown prince of coach Yoon Jeong-hwan.
His performance itself is sufficient to summon all promising players of his generation who have shown great performance since they were teenagers. In Korea, he reminds us of star players Lee Chung-yong, Park Chu-young (Ulsan HD FC), and Ki Sung-yueng (FC Seoul) who embroidered their ground at a young age.
Only a few months ago, not many people knew the names of Yang Min-hyuk. It was true that the performance at international competitions such as the 2023 Asian Football Confederation U-17 Asian Cup and FIFA U-17 World Cup was unusual, but they were only considered promising players with high potential for development.
Yang flew in as if he were mocking this assessment. He displayed his signature confident dribbling and shooting power, and destructive power that made the opponent team's defenders feel appalled, and established himself as a top-rated wing forward in the K-League, not as a "promising runner 1."
In response, Kim promised an "unprecedented treatment" by advancing his professional contract with Yang by six months, and expressed his willingness to let him go if there is a big European club that really wants him. At the time, Kim said, "I have no intention of keeping Yang Min-hyuk for five to 10 years. If there is a chance, I hope he runs to Gangwon-do, South Korea and his dream."
At this point, less than a month after signing a professional contract, Yang Min-hyuk's entry into Europe is expected to come faster than expected.
"One of the big six Premier League teams paid attention to Yang Min-hyuk and offered a transfer fee of 4 million euros (about 5.9 billion won)," CEO Kim said on a live broadcast of Gangwon Social Network Service (SNS) on the 27th. "The negotiations are going positively by 7-80%." 먹튀검증
He also gave hints about his destination. "It's not West Ham United. Liverpool is my son's favorite team. Manchester United is good, but Yang Min-hyuk…He said, "There were also love calls from Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Swansea City," revealing the specific team names of some clubs who sent letters.
