[골닷컴] Reporter Park Byung-gyu = Jeju United recruited midfielder Summer, who played an active part in Gwangju FC. Goalkeeper Yoon Bo-sang moved to Gwangju, the parent team. Jeju, which aims to remain in the K-League 1, is facing the final puzzle of recruiting foreign players.
On the 9th, Jeju officially announced the recruitment of the summer midfielder from Gwangju. At the same time, it also announced the transfer of goalkeeper Yoon Bo-sang. The two teams agreed not to disclose detailed terms and conditions of the contract.

Summer, a veteran midfielder who played 219 games in the K-League, is a legend who has only played in Gwangju since 2013, excluding military service. Last season, wearing a captain’s armband, Gwangju advanced to Final A and led the team’s highest performance (6th place). The advantage of summer is the active amount of activity. Last season, he averaged 10.783 kilometers per game. He played the third most in the K League 1 after Son Jun-ho and Han Seok-jong.
It was also perfect for manager Nam Ki-il’s tactics, pursuing a quick change of airborne and a lot of activity. In particular, when Director Nam Ki-il conducted Gwangju for three seasons from 2013, he had the experience of working together with priests, so he knows more than anyone else.
Jeju, who was promoted to K-League 1 by winning the K-League 2 last season, set the first goal of the 2021 season to’remain in the league’. As a result, coach Nam Ki-il requested the recruitment of one key player for each position, such as midfielder, left wing, and front-line striker, for team performance while raising the contributions of the existing players. As already known, in the midfielder, Hankook Young and Shin Jin-ho were in contact, but all were lost.
Luckily, I successfully signed a contract with Summer on the list. Jeju has tremendous mid-won resources such as Lee Chang-min, Kim Young-wook, and Lee Chan-dong, but coach Nam Ki-il considered the K-League 1 stage and wanted an experienced player.

In the summer of reuniting with my teacher in Jeju, he said, “It was not an easy decision to leave Gwangju” and then “I am happy to take a new challenge with Jeju. It melts quickly and wants to meet many expectations. As much as my first transfer, I will become a hot summer player in Jeju with the same spirit as a rookie.”
Meanwhile, the remaining positions are expected to be filled with foreign players. It is known that the K-League stage is the first player to be responsible for the attack. Currently, administrative procedures for visa and registration are in progress. In the era of Corona 19, conditions are difficult and it takes time, but it is expected that an announcement will be made soon.
