Park Seung-soo of Suwon Samsung is about to join Newcastle United. Park is expected to play for Newcastle's Under-21 team. However, Newcastle manager Eddie Howe is a manager who gives enough opportunities to players in the Under-21s. Some say that they can make the first team stage through growth and competition.

The Shields Gazette reported on the 19th (Korea time) "Park Seung-soo arrived in England for a medical test at Newcastle and will join the club's academy team for the 2025-2026 season."

Park Seung-soo, who was born in 2007, received attention from Newcastle United and Bayern Munich. It is also said that he was the target of scouting by a number of English Premier League teams. Park Seung-soo mainly plays as a left-side striker, but the right side is also a resource that can be played.




At this point, if you join the Newcastle under-21 team and are on the squad list for three years, you can qualify as a homegrown. The home-grown system refers to a system in which players aged 15 to 21 train for English and Welsh clubs for three years regardless of nationality and are designated as home-grown players when they are registered on the squad list.

All clubs in the English Premier League have restrictions on having to fill eight of their 25 players with homegrown players when registering on the roster. For this reason, homegrown players have the advantage of being easy to transfer to other teams in England.

Newcastle are focused on bringing in young players. He is making investments for the future of the team.

Other than acquiring Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest for 55 million pounds (about 100 billion won), there is no immediate recruitment of power.

He signed Antonio Cordero, born in 2006, from Malaga, and Baktan Salia, born in 2007, joined the team.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe could also give the Under-21s plenty of chances.




The media reported that "talented young players play an important role at Newcastle for a number of reasons"Not only are they an efficient way to reinforce squads at a low cost, but they can have a significant impact on the first team when they reach their potential."

There is also the benefit of Newcastle being able to resell players at a significant profit"In conclusion, the influx of strong young talent is bound to have a positive impact on the club."

Coach Howe also said earlier that he could join the first team if he took a chance in training and friendly matches.

Howe said last season: "The road is open to players of all ages under the first team"At the moment, Sean Neave and Leo Shahar are doing really well, regularly training with the first team. I'm really happy with them. So the door is open and we encourage it."
