Pohang Steelers will take a new leap forward with Ki Sung-yueng.
Pohang has strengthened its midfield power by recruiting Ki Sung-yueng. Ki Sung-yueng joined FC Seoul in the 2006 season and played until the 2009 season, emerging as the best prospect in the K-League. Recognized for his skills, he entered the European stage in 2010 by transferring to Celtic FC in Scotland and continued his heyday by playing for Swansea City, Sunderland, Newcastle and Mallorca. In addition, he played in 110 A matches as a key midfielder for the South Korean national team, and recorded three consecutive World Cup appearances (2010, 2014, 2018), a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics, and a runner-up finish at the 2015 Asian Cup.
Ki Sung-yueng, who has the ability to coordinate the game, a wide field of view, and accurate forward passes, is drawing attention as a resource that will upgrade the build-up of Pohang Steelers to the next level. His strengths, including ball possession, long passes, and soccer intelligence, are expected to be a great help in making Pohang's midfield more solid. Ki Sung-yueng, who marks his 20th year as a professional player this year, will play an important role in the team based on his abundant experience and leadership. In particular, it is expected that 'football mentor' will be the center axis' for young Pohang resources called the 'promising rich club' and 'center axis' for senior players.
Ki Sung-yueng said, `It's my first transfer in Korea, so I'm excited and excited. I will do my best to make great things with great players at the prestigious Pohang Steelers club"It's been more than half a season, but I'm going to prepare one game without any regrets. As the fans' expectations are high, I will repay you at Steelyard. I hope Pohang's soccer fever gets even hotter", he expressed his feelings.
