“I will compete hard with my idol Seung-hwan Oh... I want to take charge of the finish.”

  Right-handed reliever Kim Jae-yoon (34), who left KT Wiz, where he played for 9 seasons, is heading to his first spring camp in a Samsung Lions uniform.  He is in a situation where he feels once again that he has transferred. KT mainly spent time training for the new season in Arizona, USA, but its new team, Samsung, is holding spring camp training in neighboring Okinawa, Japan. Kim Jae-yoon, who met with reporters ahead of his departure at Incheon International Airport on the 30th, said, "I have a lot of expectations (going to the first spring camp with the new team), but I also have concerns. I think I'm leaving with a lot of complex emotions." He said, "Among the Samsung players, I think I'm only close to (Jang) Pil-jun and (Kim) Dong-yeop. I'm worried because I'm a bit shy. So my first goal for this camp is to quickly adapt to the team and become friendly with the players. “He emphasized. One of the players Jae-yoon Kim would like to become closest

Kim Ki-joong "No matter when it happens, I'll definitely try it together once."

  Hanwha Eagles left-handed pitcher Kim Ki-joong (22) recently went to Okinawa, Japan for personal training with his seniors.  This is thanks to Ryu Hyun-jin (37), a senior at Hanwha and currently awaiting a contract as a free agent (FA).  Ryu Hyun-jin established himself in Okinawa with his juniors Jang Min-jae and Lee Tae-yang during his time at Hanwha, and Kim Ki-joong, who they recommended.  All costs were supported by Ryu Hyun-jin. Moreover, accompanying Ryu Hyun-jin was an opportunity that money could not buy.  He was a player who motivated juniors just by his presence.  Kim Ki-joong, who met with this newspaper, said, "I had a really good opportunity because senior Min-jae Jang recommended it to me. Last season, I had trouble using a change-up. When it comes to change-ups, I think it's senior Ryu Hyun-jin. My senior kept watching me while I was in Okinawa. Thanks to that, my pitch is getting better little by little." I looked back and said, “I felt it.” Kim Ki-joon

Coach Mourinho, who has no worries even if he is sacked by Rome

  Coach Jose Mourinho, who was sacked from AS Roma, is rapidly emerging as a candidate for the next manager of SSC Napoli. Coach Mourinho was recently sacked by AS Roma.  Roma announced on the club website on the 16th (local time) that they have parted ways with coach Mourinho. Coach Mourinho and the coaching staff are leaving Roma as of this time. Regarding the new coaching staff who will lead the first-team squad, “We will update the news soon,” he said, announcing the dismissal of coach Mourinho. Coach Mourinho, as well as AS Roma fans, seemed embarrassed by the sudden news of his dismissal.  When coach Mourinho left the Roma club, many fans came to the training ground to say goodbye, and some fans were emotional. However, despite the disappointment, love calls are flooding in for coach Mourinho.  Britain's 'The Times' said on the 21st (local time), "Coach Mourinho may continue his work in Italy. He is already considering his next destination after being sacked in R

Almeira fullback appeals to VAR three times for unfair treatment.

  “It seems like someone has decided the outcome of the game.” Spain's Mundo Deportivo reported on the 22nd (Korean time) that "Almeria defender Marc Fouville was dissatisfied with the result of the game." Almeria lost 2-3 to Real Madrid in the 21st round of La Liga in the 2023-2024 season held at the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, Spain, on the 22nd.  Almeria took the lead early with Raj Ramazani's goal in the first minute of the first half, and took a 2-0 lead with an additional goal from Edgar González in the 43rd minute of the first half.  Real Madrid was not a soft opponent.  In the 12th minute of the second half, Jude Bellingham scored a goal with a penalty kick, and Vinicius Jr. scored the equalizer in the 22nd minute of the second half.  In extra time in the second half, Dani Carvajal added a goal, and Almeria lost 2-3. It was a difficult game for Almeria to understand.  Jose Hernández, the referee of this match, conducted video review (VAR) three times in this

Close to loan transfer to the most winning team in Serie A”

  Jordan Henderson, former captain of Liverpool FC in the English Premier League, is about to move on loan to Juventus.  Di Marzio, a leading Italian journalist, said on the 13th (Korean time), "Henderson, who wants to leave Saudi Arabia and return to Europe, could join Juventus."  Henderson joined Sunderland AFC in 1998 at the age of eight, and debuted in the first team in 2008.  In November 2010, he made his debut as a member of the England senior national team in a friendly match against France.  In 2011, Henderson was selected as one of the '13 Notable Prospects of 2011' announced by FIFA, and was selected as Sunderland's Young Player of the Year for two consecutive years.  Ahead of the 2011-2012 season, Henderson wore a Liverpool uniform for a transfer fee of 16 million pounds (about 26.8 billion won).  Henderson established himself as a starting midfielder in his debut season at Liverpool with 2 goals and 3 assists in 48 appearances.  He was appointed vice-c

"Asian tigers, strong favorites to win. At least 3 goals difference."

  ‘There is a huge gap!’ Korea finally holds its first Asian Cup match. Korea will play the first leg of the AFC Asian Cup Group E preliminary round at Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium at 8:30 pm (Korea time) on the 15th.  The opponent is Bahrain. Korea is in Group E along with Malaysia and Jordan. Sports Mall, a soccer statistics site, said on the 14th, 'There is a huge gap between the two teams.  Korea is the strongest candidate to win this tournament.  He said, “It is very likely that this game will be played with Korea’s one-sided advantage.” This media outlet said, 'Korea won 1-0 in the last friendly match against Iraq with Lee Jae-seong's winning goal.  At the time, Son Heung-min and Kim Min-jae were substituted in the second half, but we expect them to start this time,” he said. “Lee Kang-in was sent off in the Iraq game, but he can come out in the first game of the preliminary round without any problems.” This media used the nickname ‘Asian Tiger’ for Korea.

I spent a lot of money and then what happened... San Diego, can’t even protect Kim Ha-seong?

  Trade rumors about Kim Ha-seong (29, San Diego Padres) continue. The possibility of Kim Ha-seong being traded is also being raised in this Stove League.  This is something Ha-seong Kim is already familiar with.  Last winter, there were predictions that Kim Ha-seong would be traded when Xander Bogaerts, a top major league shortstop, joined San Diego.  At the time, Ha-seong Kim pledged to survive in the competition within the team, saying, "A lot of people are worried (about my position), but no matter which team you play for, you always have to compete. I think I just have to do what I can do." He actually pledged to survive as a second baseman. Even after moving to , he showed great performance. 2023 was the year of Ha-seong Kim.  He performed brilliantly in every game.  He gave major league fans a treat with his excellent performance.  Ha-seong Kim played all over the infield, including not only second base, but also shortstop and third base, showing off a water-tight defe

This time, fans of Suwon Samsung and FC are all asking, “What are you talking about” due to the rumor of ‘joint use of the stadium’

  Fans of Suwon Samsung, a professional soccer team, have been upset since the club was relegated to the second division for the first time in its history, and have been upset since the beginning of the year over the untimely rumor of 'sharing the Suwon World Cup Stadium'.  Suwon FC fans, who are from the same hometown, also expressed their dissatisfaction. The fans' outrage started with a report on Suwon FC's general manager Choi Soon-ho's comment about the joint use of Suwon World Cup Stadium, which he described as 'two families under one roof'.  Director Choi's intention was that if the older brother, Suwon Samsung, founded in 1995, decides to share the stadium with its 'younger brother' Suwon FC in consideration, it would be a step forward for the development of Suwon's soccer culture and for Korean soccer fans. Suwon FC, a foundation founded by Suwon City Hall, an industrial team founded in 2003, turned professional and participated in t

‘Kim Eun-joong’s system’ Suwon FC has ‘young technician’ Lee Jun-seok!

  Suwon FC succeeded in reinforcing the offensive line. An official familiar with the K-League transfer market said, "Suwon FC has successfully recruited Lee Jun-seok (24) from Incheon United. All procedures, including medical tests, have been completed. An announcement will be made soon."  Suwon FC, which is accelerating a generational change by recently appointing coach Kim Eun-joong, who made the U-20 World Cup semifinals legend, succeeded in renewing its offensive lineup by adding young and talented striker Lee Jun-seok. Lee Jun-seok recently completed his military service and returned to Incheon.  Lee Jun-seok raised a lot of expectations as a member of Incheon Youth.  Lee Jun-seok was evaluated as a great prospect from his childhood, receiving the Cha Bum-geun Soccer Award, and also played a big role at Daegeon High School.  There were times when he showed flashes of his unique talent, but he did not live up to the expectations he showed when he was young.  Aside from a

'ERA whopping 7.18' Japan Fujinami, Boras "received contract offers from 2-3 teams"

  “Super agent” Scott Boras, who represents Fujinami’s contract, said, “We have received contract offers from 2-3 clubs.”  Japan's Nikkan Sports announced on the 7th (Korean time), "Boras is attending the Winter Meeting being held in Nashville, Tennessee, USA and is in the process of negotiating Fujinami's contract. There is demand from big league clubs (to recruit Fujinami)." He said.  Fujinami was Shohei Ohtani's rival during his amateur days.  Fujinami, who made his professional debut as a member of the Hanshin Tigers of the Japanese Professional Baseball League in 2013, won a record 14 games in the 2015 season. Afterwards, he suffered the humiliation of having his salary cut for six consecutive years due to a downward slope. His overall record in Japan is 57 wins, 54 losses, 11 holds, and an earned run average of 3.41. Fujinami pursued advancement to the big leagues through the posting system (private competitive bidding) and signed a one-year contract with th
