Noticed how our NT sponsor nike doesn't sponsor any of the k-league clubs while they sponsor clubs in china and japan and every other country.
There were too many troublemakers in Seongnam this year, which I believe Shin Tae-yong didnt take care of very well and is one of the reasons why his team performed very badly this season. With Ahn Ik-soo as a manager this will definitely not happen. I actually wanna see how Yoon Bitgaram and manager Ahn works together now. Could really be hell or heaven for Yoon Bitgaram. On the other hand I cannot believe Busan let him go. I dont know the full details how this happened but Busan has actually been on the rise thanks to manager Ahn. Ahn Ik-soo should have been part of the club's long term plans. Really doesnt make sense for Busan to lose him with 2(?) years left on his contract.
I looked up club connections and looks like Ahn had most his career at Seongnam. So I imagine it to be his dream job.
Bild reported that Jung Dae-se will have his final match with FC Koln and transfer. They say he is close to a move to Korea. http://www.goal.com/kr/news/147/korea/2012/12/15/3603011/2
and here's the translation for you guys: There has been a question that has been frequently asked and that is 'Would you like to return to Medellín? R/: At this moment, it's difficult because I have a current contract with Korea, they didn't want to sell me; also, including recently a proposal from brazil arrived and they (FC Seoul) rejected it so that being said, I see it's difficult to return to Colombia.
Chunnam Dragon defender Ahn Jae-Jun might be on his way to Beijing Guoan. http://sports.sina.com.cn/j/2012-12-14/17496338268.shtml
Seongnam and Ulsan are fighting to sign Peruvian player, Andy Pando, who was the top scorer in the Peruvian Primera Liga this year. http://sports.media.daum.net/soccer/news/k_league/breaking/view.html?newsid=20121215134606108 Some highlights:--------------------------------------------------------- Daegu FC has signed two new Brazilian players, Fabio Santos and Adriano Pardal. http://star.fnnews.com/news/index.html?no=150214 http://daegufc.co.kr/board/content.html?tb=board_2&num=2221&page=1
A news from an agent today announced that Busan I’Park rejected Kashiwa’s $150 milion bid for Kim Chang-Soo. Busan reportedly made it clear that they will not let their captain leave. http://footballkorea.wordpress.com/
Ex Suwon manager Yoon Sung-hyo is the new Busan manager http://sports.news.naver.com/sports...&mod=read&office_id=076&article_id=0002289831 Dat charisma!
Gwangju FC’s midfielder and 2011 K-League Lookie of the Year Lee Seung-Gi said that although he wants to stay at the club, he could leave if it will benefit the club. “I want to stay, but it has been said that the club needs my transfer fee to run the club. I could leave for the team,” said the 24 year old international. “I haven’t thought about which club I prefer, though. I haven’t heard about anything yet.” Jeonbuk Hyundai FC is known to have shown interest in the player, but Jeonbuk will have to win a fierce competition to sign the player. Lee Seung-Gi is well-known for his love for Gwangju FC as a local boy. http://footballkorea.wordpress.com/2012/12/18/lee-seung-gi-i-could-leave-for-the-team/
LSG would be perfect for Jeonbuk's style. If LSG is going to go somewhere, it might as well be either Europe or a better Jeollado team.
