France's L'Equipe reported on the 24th (Korea Standard Time) "Two Korean midfielders Kwon Hyuk-kyu and Hong Hyun-seok will be newly added to Nantes."
The media reported that `new coaching staff, 14 players left, six players left, and the end of the transfer window is still far away, but Nantes has definitely switched to a new system this summer and must be the most active club in Ligue 1 to date," he said.
Kwon Hyuk-kyu is currently a midfielder for Celtic in Scotland. Last season, he was loaned to Hibernian and played in 21 games. The media predicted that Kwon Hyuk-kyu will sign a three-year contract with Nantes. He is expected to join the club for a transfer fee of less than 1 million euros (about 1.6 billion won).
