Oh Hyun-kyu will not be able to transfer to Stuttgart, the German Bundesliga.
Germany's Bild said on the 2nd (Korea time) "Korea's national striker Oh Hyun-kyu failed the medical test."Oh Hyun-kyu's agent was seen rushing into Stuttgart's clinic," he said.
Earlier, Stuttgart reportedly reached a transfer agreement between Genk and Oh Hyun-kyu in principle.
"Schutgart was ready to pay more than 25 million euros (about 40 billion won), and long-term contracts through 2030 were also discussed," Bild said. But all plans fell through.
In this transfer window, Stuttgart left key striker Nick Voltemade. Because of this, it was necessary to recruit a striker. Oh Hyun-kyu received attention, but shocking news broke that he failed the medical test.
Stuttgart reportedly tried to lower the transfer fee by judging that Oh Hyun-kyu had a problem during the medical test.
Belgium's HLN is "Oh Hyun-kyu will not move to Stuttgart. A problem was found during the medical test"Schutgart tried to offer a lower amount accordingly, but Genk refused to accept it" he reported.
Oh Hyun-kyu said goodbye to his fans in the last game, but he eventually returns to his original team. The media claimed that the transfer fee that Genk will receive due to the sale of Oh Hyun-kyu reached up to 28 million euros (about 45.6 billion won).
Genk sees Oh Hyun-kyu as in good enough condition. On the other hand, Stuttgart decided otherwise and failed to narrow the gap between the two teams.
"Despite the fact that there was a principled agreement between the two clubs, negotiations were ultimately canceled due to differences in views over the specific terms of the transfer," Genk said in an official statement. "In fact, this means Oh will return to Genk and rejoin the first-team squad."
Genk also added "This change in circumstances has led us to finish the transfer market the way we had planned it to be in the first place."
