Hwang Hee-chan will eventually move to Birmingham City in the second division?→Wolverhampton's departure accelerates
There are talks that Hwang Hee-chan could join Birmingham City. As Wolverhampton has lost a significant number of players in the transfer market this summer, a careful decision is expected to be made.

Britain's Molineux reported on the 14th (Korea time) "Some say that another Wolverhampton player may head to Birmingham City after Tommy Doyle."

This refers to Hwang Hee-chan. Hwang Hee-chan showed his worst performance in the 2024-2025 season, and the possibility of a transfer has been steadily raised.




The media reported that "The South Korean national striker did not show much impact at Wolverhampton, and his performance did not recover even after manager Vitor Pereira took office."This is all the more regrettable. Hwang Hee-chan was one of Wolverhampton's best players in the 2023-2024 season, and he even signed a new contract in the middle of that season, becoming one of the highest-paid players in the team," he said.

Hwang Hee-chan has played a total of 119 games for Wolverhampton, scoring 24 goals and eight assists. He recorded a career high with 13 goals and 3 assists in 31 games in the 2023-2024 season, but performed poorly with 2 goals and 1 assist in 25 games in the 2024-2025 season. For this reason, it was speculated that he would leave for another team in the transfer market this summer.

If you join Birmingham City, you can expect to work with your national team teammate Baek Seung-ho. Birmingham City has come up to the second division this season and is aiming to return to the English Premier League (EPL) at once through active investment.

However, it remains to be seen whether Wolverhampton will release Hwang Hee-chan. As the power loss has been severe recently, there is a possibility that Hwang Hee-chan will be left in the team for another season.

The media said "There has been a major player breakaway at Wolverhampton in recent weeks, and there seems to be a chance that more players will leave the team in the future."

First, Matheus Cunha, the team's ace, left for Manchester United. Rayan Ait - Nouri moved to Manchester City, while Pablo Sarabia and Craig Dawson left the team due to the expiration of their contracts.




Currently, Nelsong Semedu is a free agent (FA) status, and the possibility of renewing his contract is low. Nasser Ziga moved to Rangers and Tommy Doyle to Birmingham City on loan. Wolverhampton are a team that narrowly avoided relegation last season. The survival of next season is threatened by a large number of key players leaving. We need to see if Hwang Hee-chan will be given another chance at Wolverhampton and play a key player in staying.
