Jeonbuk Lee Ju-yong ↔ Jeju Jung Woo-jae Match Trade

Jeju United’s Jung Woo-jae and Jeonbuk Hyundai’s Lee Ju-yong will swap uniforms. Both clubs announced the trade at the same time on the 22nd. The contract period for both players is 2 years.

Lee Ju-yong made his professional debut in 2014 in Jeonbuk. In his debut season, he stood out with 1 goal and 1 assist in 22 appearances. Due to his performance for his team, he made his A-match debut in a friendly against United Arab Emirates (UAE) on 11 June 2015. In November 2020, he played a total of 5 A-matches, including an away evaluation match against Mexico and Qatar held in Austria. Jeonbuk and Asan Mugunghwa Football Team (2017-2018) also accumulated numerous championships (4 K League 1 championships, 1 K League 2 championship, 1 ACL championship, 1 FA Cup championship). He was loaned to Incheon United last season and made 10 league appearances. 3 goals and 10 assists in 137 professional appearances.

Lee Ju-yong not only has his main job, defense, but also shows off his strengths in attack situations as he was a left-sided striker before his professional debut. His finishing ability is so good that he won the top scorer (17 goals) in the U-League Yeongnam area while attending Dong-A University in 2013. On October 9, 2020, in the ‘2020 Men’s Soccer Team vs Olympic Team Friendly Match’, he scored his national team debut goal with a bold breakthrough and a powerful right-footed shot in the 14th minute of the first half as a member of Team A. It is an offensive fullback that fits well with coach Nam Ki-il’s soccer style, who dominates the game through all-round pressure and quick switching from the side. Also, since he is left-footed, he can weaponize crosses coming up quickly from the left flank. Coach Nam Ki-il also expressed expectations, saying, “Lee Joo-yong is a good player with various experiences. He will be a great help to Jeju, which is challenging to advance into the ACL.”

Lee Ju-yong said, “I feel special because I started a new challenge in Jeju.” “There are many good players in Jeju. The most important thing is to create synergy with them. I think this is what coach Nam Ki-il wants. In Jeju, I want to become a player who gives faith and trust. I was very disappointed with the injury last year, but I will try to become a player who contributes to the team by participating in many games this season.” 메이저사이트
