Chungcheongbuk-do announced on the 24th that it added weight to the defense by recruiting Yoon Seok-young (35), a veteran defender who has experienced the national team and the English Premier League (EPL). The number is 36.
Yoon Seok-young has been recognized as a competent resource enough to be called by the national team since she was a teenager. Since his professional debut with the Jeonnam Dragons in 2009, he has consistently played in games and has demonstrated his ability by being selected as an adult national team.
Yoon Seok-young, who played in the EPL when he joined the Queens Park Rangers (QPR) in 2013, returned to Korea after transferring to FC Seoul on loan in 2018 after going through the European stage and the J-League, and played in 246 K-League 1 games in 11 seasons.
Chungcheongbuk-do Cheongju said, `It is expected to add a great sense of stability to Chungcheongbuk-do Cheongju's defense as it combines pass blocking ability based on quick judgment, interpersonal marking ability, and ability to quickly cover open spaces.'
Kwon Oh-kyu, head coach of Chungcheongbuk-do Cheongju, recruited him because he felt that he needed to reinforce his defense. Yoon Seok-young is a player with a high understanding of tactics, so he will melt into the team quickly, and he will play when his physical condition reaches its maximum so that he can help the team."
Yoon Seok-young said "When I heard about the future of Chungcheongbuk-do Cheongju, I thought it had a high potential for development, and I thought it was a team that could be an example within the K-League. I'll do my best to help the director from now on", expressing anticipation and determination for the new challenge.
Yoon Seok-young plans to debut as early as the 29th through the K League 25 round against Gyeongnam, which will be held at Changwon Football Center. Chungcheongbuk-do Cheongju ranked 10th with one win, one draw, two losses and four points in four games.
