2012 K-League Summer Transfers & Rumors

Transfer:

FC Seoul have signed Spanish forward Sergio Escudero. He has previously played for Urawa Reds Diamond. He is a naturalised Japanese and judging by the video he has probably moved to Japan at a very early age. SMH Jeonbuk has been linked to Djeparov and you guys look for another striker? Get DeVere or Cornwaithe in our team we need defense.

Transfer:



Central Coast Mariners' captain is supposely to sign with Jeonbuk on a two year deal.

Also Melbourne Heart's Brendam Hamill has signed a four year deal with Seongnam.

Jeonbuk's Luiz Henrique has left to Al-Shabab.

Transfer:

Incheon United have signed Albanian attacking mid, Sokol Cikalleshi. According to his wiki page he is considered to be Albania's most promising talent.

Incheon very serious about surviving relegation.

lol, the dream team?

I posted the better video. Check it.

Tall, good dribbling skills from that video. We'll see.

wikipedia states that he's on a loan, then again it's wikipedia.

how long is his contract? imo he's a good pickup

Not really sure and I'm glad if it is a loan. According to Saku, he isn't really that good and hasn't play in a while.

It's so awkward watching a Spanish man like him speaking Japanese.

Official:

Sokol Cikalleshi is officially an Incheon United player.

Transfer:

Some K-League players to the K2.

Gimhae City FC have signed Lee Jong-Hyun (Incheon United) and Lee Hyun-Sang (Daegu FC).

Rumors:

Denis Laktionov (Lee Seong-Nam) is on a trial with Gangwon FC. Bad move by Gangwon he hasn't played football in a while. :/

SICK signing by Jeonbuk

the last time I heard about him was getting a call up to Japan's NT. don't think it was their main NT but I figured he had some credibility coming from Urawa Reds. thanks to you and Saku for the update

these recent signings are pretty impressive.
our domestic/import K-League players > domestic/import J-League players

I don't know much about J-League foreign players but I would think J-league foreigners would be of better quality than K-League's due to more $.

Of course the J.League has better imports. They get all of our young prospects.

true they do get a good bulk of our talent. so i guess we import and export better

Lee Seung-Ryul is coming to Ulsan on a 6-months loan from Gamba Osaka. Haha.

Does he too also have a clause in his contract that prevents him from playing against FC Seoul?

He couldn't hack it as a lone striker in Japan, huh?

Transfer:

Ianis Zicu is on a six month loan to Gangwon. (A really good move by them) Also Busan's LB, Jeon Jae-Ho, has moved to Gangwon as well.
