South Korea's national team side defender Seol Young-woo may take the British stage. It is news that Sheffield United, the English Football League Championship (minor league), are aiming for him.

Serbia's Sporticimo reported on the 12th (Korea time) "There is a possibility that Serbian league champion Zvezda, who finished a successful season, will start the next season without trusted defender Seol Young-woo."

Seol is a key player for Zvezda. In the 2024-2025 season, he played 24 games in all tournaments, scoring six goals and eight assists. Although he is a side defender position, he is leading the team's offense by showing amazing scoring ability. He is also a key player in the Korean national team.




As Seol Young-woo's skills have improved, interest from various clubs is pouring in. The Saudi Arabian League also paid attention to him, and England Championship Sheffield United entered the competition. Sheffield United are reportedly considering the terms of the transfer at an early stage.

Seol is valued at 4.5 million euros (about 7.2 billion won) in the current transfer market. Since the transfer fee is not so expensive, it is classified as a player with a low recruitment burden. However, considering Seol Young-woo's performance last season, Zvezda is likely not to sell at that price. In other words, if full-fledged negotiations with Sheffield United begin, the price may be raised.

Seol Young-woo joined Zvezda last summer for a transfer fee of 1.5 million euros (about 2.4 billion won). It is reported that the three-year contract includes a one-year extension option. After joining the team, Seol Young-woo easily became the main player and is classified as a useful resource because he can play both sides.

According to the media, Zvezda is currently not considering a move for him, but it could be enough to sell if an appropriate price offer comes in. Zvezda believes the transfer will yield at least twice as much revenue.

In the end, it seems that Seol Young-woo will have to make a choice. It is a decision whether to remain at Zvezda, which will consistently receive opportunities to play in the UEFA Champions League, or to Sheffield United, which will take on a fierce challenge to advance to the English Premier League (EPL).
