Striker Lee Seung-woo (25) of Suwon FC in the K-League 1 will move to Jeonbuk Hyundai. Lee himself conveyed the news to his fans.
Lee Seung-woo announced his transfer through a loudspeaker in front of the away supporters’ seats after the away game in the 24th round of the Hana Bank K League 1 against Incheon United at Incheon Football Stadium on the 21st. Suwon FC won 4-1 on the day, and Lee Seung-woo helped the team win by scoring a goal.
Lee Seung-woo, a former Barcelona youth player, joined Suwon FC ahead of the 2022 season after passing through Italy’s Serie A Verona, Belgium’s Gir Sintrawidan, and Portuguese league Portimonense.
Lee, who had 14 goals and three assists in his first season with Suwon FC, posted 10 goals and three assists last season. While playing as a substitute in the latter half of this season, Lee had 10 goals and two assists in 18 matches, posting double-digit goals for the third consecutive season. 스포츠토토
Lee Seung-woo has drawn keen attention as he is expected to transfer through the summer transfer window. However, it seems that Park Ji-sung, technical director of Jeonbuk, has shown interest in recruiting Lee Seung-woo, and Lee Seung-woo has also chosen Jeonbuk.
Jeonbuk is currently ranked 10th among the 12 teams with five wins, eight draws, 11 losses and 23 points after the 24th round. Although the team has improved from its poor performance this season, it is still in an uphill battle as it has not completely escaped the relegation zone.
Jeonbuk is expected to officially announce the recruitment of Lee Seung-woo soon.
