There are predictions that it will be difficult for Suwon FC and head coach Kim Eun-joong to accompany them next season. .

Kim Eun-joong became the first professional team coach at the end of last year after leading the under-20 national team to the semifinals.

As in the case of the breakup of coach Yoon Jung-hwan and Gangwon FC, civic teams with good performance are facing a difficult time ahead of the new season as they have failed to meet the demands of the head coach related to salary hikes and player recruitment. Due to the limited budget, it is difficult for the coach to give the compensation he wants, and it is also difficult for the coach to give up the compensation for the best performance and the part he wants. For now, it is highly likely that he will finish his companion at the end of this season. Suwon FC and Suwon City will discuss whether to sign an extension contract with head coach Kim Eun-joong on the 19th.

With other clubs continuing to pay attention to Kim Eun-joong, who showed his best ability from the first season, the fate of Suwon 'Sharpball' is expected to be decided soon.
