China is in trouble over the rising price of Wang Yu-dong.
On the 19th, soccer statistics media Transfer Markt updated the ransom for active players in the Chinese Super League. The player who is receiving the most attention in this update is Wang Yu-dong, who was born in 2006.
Wang Wang Dong is the most anticipated prospect in China. As Korean soccer fans look at Yang Min-hyuk, Wang Wang Wang-dong wants Chinese fans to be the next ace. The appearance of royal consent was in 2023. Wang Yu-dong, who signed a professional contract with Zhejiang FC in the Chinese league, immediately made his professional debut. In the 2023 and 2024 seasons, it was too young to be given the right opportunity to play. This is because his body is not yet complete to compete on the professional stage.
In the 2025 season, the potential of Wangwang-dong began to explode. He is flying with nine goals in 14 games. In the league, he is currently tied for second place in the scoring rankings with eight goals. Among Chinese players, he scores the most in the league. It is a recent performance in which Chinese soccer fans have high expectations for Wang Wang Dong.
Wang was immediately called up to the Chinese national team as well. Wang Wang-dong, who made his A-match debut in March against Australia, started in both A-match games in June. Wang was also a player who saved China's last pride. In the final match of the third Asian qualifying round for the World Cup against Bahrain, Wang Yu-dong handed China a victory by handling a penalty just before the end of the match. Wang Yu-dong celebrated his debut goal for the national team with his top off.
Stock prices soared like this, and the price increase was natural. The royal building, which first began to be valued in December 2023, was initially only 200,000 euros (about 300 million won). It was only 400,000 euros (about 600 million won) until December 2024, but the ransom has soared over the past half a year. It rose to 1.5 million euros (about 2.4 billion won) in June.
With this change, Wang has become one of the top prospects in Asia beyond China. Among the Asian players born in 2006, the highest-paid players are Nestor Irakunda of Australia and Keita Koski of Japan. The two players are worth 4 million euros (about 6.3 billion won). Next is Korea's Yang Min-hyuk, boasting 3.5 million euros (about 5.5 billion won). Although it is different from the previous three players, Wang Yu-dong ranked fourth among Asian players born in 2006. It is the second highest among Chinese players. Since Sergio, the No. 1 player, is a naturalized Brazilian player, Wang Yu-dong is the No. 1 player in mainland China.
