Hwang Seon-hong Calls for First Training for Hangzhou Asian Games: 14 ‘Capacity’ Players Gather

Hwang Seon-hong, who confirmed the final list for the Hangzhou Asian Games, will gather 14 ‘capacity’ and conduct the first training.

The Korea Football Association announced on the 21st that “the Hangzhou Asian Games men’s team will conduct convocation training at the Paju National Team Training Center (NFC) from the 25th to the 27th.”

Only 14 of the 21 players currently named in the national team’s roster will participate in this training.

Baek Seung-ho (Jeonbuk), Seol Young-woo (Ulsan), and Hwang Jae-won (Daegu), who are members of the ‘Team K-League’, which will play a friendly match against Spanish soccer giant Atletico Madrid, will not attend this call.

Atletico Madrid will play against Team K-League at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 27th.

Players selected for the Team K-League have overlapping schedules as they have to participate in events such as a fan signing event and soccer clinic on the 26th, the day before the game.

In addition, foreign players such as Lee Kang-in, whose team Paris Saint-Germain (PSG, France) has not yet reached an Asian Games selection agreement, Park Kyu-hyun (Dynamo Dresden), Jung Woo-young (Stuttgart), and Hong Hyun-seok (Ghent) will also be excluded.

On the 14th, national team coach Hwang Seon-hong announced the final list of 22 players to participate in the Hangzhou Asian Games.

We selected Baek Seung-ho, Park Jin-seop (Jeonbuk), and Seol Young-woo as the three wild cards (over 24 years old).

However, Lee Sang-min (Seongnam), who was caught drunk driving in May 2020, was also chosen by Hwang, causing controversy.

Lee Sang-min, who was fined 5 million won for violating the Road Traffic Act in August of that year, cannot wear the national team uniform until August this year according to the rules of the Football Association.

In the end, when the fact that they were not properly aware of their own regulations was revealed and criticism intensified, the association finally excluded Lee Sang-min from Hwang Seon-hong-ho on the 18th.
