Jeonbuk Song Min-gyu is shooting during the game between Jeonbuk Hyundai and Daejeon Hana Citizens in the opening game of Hana Bank K-League 1 2024 held at Jeonju World Cup Stadium in Jeonju-si, Jeollabuk-do on the 1st.
Song Min-gyu (Jeonbuk) will join the national team in place of the injured Eom Won-sang (Ulsan).
The Korea Football Association (KFA) announced on the 15th, “We have selected Song Min-gyu as a replacement for Eom Won-sang, who was unable to join the national team due to injury.”
According to Ulsan HD, Eom Won-sang recently suffered an injury to his left ankle. Ulsan plans to accurately determine the extent of Eom Won-sang's injury through a medical examination.
As a result, Eom Won-sang, who had been aiming to join the national team for the first time in about two years since the East Asian Football Federation (EAFF) E1 Championship (East Asian Cup) in July 2022, has pledged to do the following.
Song Min-gyu, who replaces Eom Won-sang, was named to the A national team for the first time in a year since March of last year. Song Min-gyu has been active in the Hangzhou Asian Games national team (under 24 years old) since the international match period in June last year.
Meanwhile, Korea, led by interim coach Hwang Seon-hong, will convene and begin training at Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi-do on the 18th. Korea will play its North and Central America World Cup second qualifying home game against Thailand at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 21st and then play an away game in Bangkok, Thailand on the 26th. Korea is currently first in the group with two wins in a row, and Thailand is second in the group with one win and one loss. 온라인섯다
