Taegeuk Warriors General Transfer Thread Part II

@takeuchi isn't going to be happy.

 

stupid decision if true.

 

It's not if they are the only one tabling up an actual offer.

 

he better take the Bundesliga offer. HKY is more than ready & good enough to hack it in Bundesliga. relying on good World Cup performance to generate a move to Europe is a myth. it doesn't happen... LCY & other KPAs are the only one who might benefit from it.

 

Well, is there an offer? No-one knows. Rumours don't mean offers.

 

just saying, if he actually has the offer..... and based on his interview, he supposedly does.

 

why do they want him? they have ex-MLS player leading the scoring for them with 12 goals, Lucas Barrios & Artem Dzyuba on loan at FC Rostov (12 goals).

 

No worries, he's just waiting for QPR to get promoted.

 

god forbid.

CSKA Moscow interested in Kim Young-Gwon.

lol, well.. at least they can afford him.

 

What is the source they are citing?

 

most likely BS or fiction unless you have some info?

 

The Chinese article doesn't cite any source, it's mostly about the J-League teams in the AFC Champions League for next year anyway.

 

Thank you, the auto-translation gave some weird result for me so I was not able understand exactly if they were pointing elsewhere to the source of the rumour or simply linking to a player's profile.

 

Has it been reported in Russia? I never found CSKA's defenders to be very convincing...

 

I have not seen that info in Russian pundits. Plus CSKA have not much freedom in signing foreign defenders, as there is a limit of 4 Russians on the pitch and usually they are the goalie plus 3 defenders for us.
Clubs are trying to change the limit from the pitch squad constraint to the registered squad constraint (10 foreigners in the team's roster) but it is not very likely to be approved by the Russian FA.

 

Lippi having nice things to say about Kim Young Gwon.

"
Kim Young-Gwon -- Guangzhou Evergrande
There are few better judges of a player than Italian World Cup-winning manager Marcello Lippi. So when the now China-based veteran proclaims that a defender is "good enough to play for Manchester United," they are worth taking seriously. Kim was sensational in 2013, helping his side to a first AFC Champions League title and fourth place in the Club World Cup, where he was an outstanding performer. The South Korean, 23, is an excellent reader of the game, spotting danger before it develops, and is strong in the air for a player who is unexceptional physically. He would be a fantastic signing for many European sides, but persuading cash-rich Evergrande to sell could be problematic."

I like KYG but good enough to play for ManU? Come on. He's just saying that to try to get a big transfer fee.
