According to a series of K-League sources on the 1st, 「Suwon FC Super Crack" Andersson is expected to eventually wear the FC Seoul uniform. The contract is imminent on the condition that flanker Willian and multi-defensive resource Lee Si-young are added to a considerable amount of transfer fees.
Andersson, who won the K League 1 title last year, was the biggest player in the summer transfer market this season. Andersson was recognized as the strongest foreign winger in the league with seven goals and 13 assists in 38 games last year and five goals and six assists in 20 games this season.
After the end of last season, rumors of a transfer at home and abroad continued, but the contract was not made as Suwon FC, a civic club that had sufficient contract period with Andersson, decided not to allow the transfer unless it was a compromising condition. Andersson's future course of the new season while "unhappy" was a hot topic and concern for fans. Rumors of a transfer continued throughout the season.
Choi Soon-ho, head of Suwon FC, and Kim Eun-joong, manager of Suwon FC, complained of the player by promising to send him a good offer in the summer transfer market, and rumors of a transfer with multiple teams in the K League 1 in the summer transfer market continued.
Regarding Andersson's transfer, Choi Soon-ho gave the authority to coach Kim Eun-jung and the team's secretariat's power reinforcement team. With 11th place in the league and moving around in the relegation zone, coach Kim wanted not only transfer fees but also 'smart' players to immediately use as a sense of strength. Specific negotiations with each club were conducted with multiple cards, but progress was slow. Negotiations have been stalled several times as players designated as transfer targets did not want to go to Suwon, or conversely, it was difficult for the Suwon club to meet the annual salary required by the player. It took more than a month for the coach, the player and the club to feel anxious. Immediately after the home game against Gangwon FC on the 28th, head coach Kim Eun-joong made the transfer a fact, saying, `Anderson will go out and new players will come in.' There are players to leave, and some are chaotic from the standpoint of sending them away. It needs to be organized quickly and reorganized. Preparing as soon as possible with a new player is an important part of the second half of the year. He hinted at a quick decision-making regarding Andersson's transfer.
In the end, the conclusion was club Seoul, which was mentioned at the beginning of the summer transfer market. With negotiations between Suwon FC and FC Seoul reportedly in the final stages, Andersson's trip to Seoul is imminent. Veteran winger Willian, born in 1994, who scored 50 goals and 15 assists in 160 games in the K League's 1-2 divisions, including Gwangju, Gyeongnam, Daejeon, and Seoul, and multi-defensive resource Lee Si-young will come to Suwon.
On the 28th, the match between Suwon FC and Gangwon FC is expected to be recorded as the last offensive point at Castle Park with Andersson's farewell match in Suwon and the help of the equalizer of the day.
Meanwhile, the Brazilian striker, who entered the country five days ago to go to Suwon FC, was found to have problems twice in medical tests, which inevitably disrupted his recruitment plan. Suwon, which has hired veterans such as Altoran such as Jeonbuk Ahn Hyun-beom and Pohang Han Chan-hee on loan, will continue to reinforce foreign strikers and squads to rebound in the second half of the year. Suwon FC will prepare for after the break with a new determination through a four-night, five-day off-season training in Yangyang, Gangwon-do, on the 7th.
