[인터풋볼] Reporter Lee Hyun-ho = Incheon United recruited’K League veteran defender’ Kim Gwang-seok (37) from Pohang Steelers.
In a press release on the 5th, the Incheon club officially announced that “We have recruited veteran defender Kim Kwang-seok from Pohang.” As a result, Incheon recruited Oh Ban-seok (32) from Jeonbuk Hyundai and brought Kim Gwang-seok to reinforce the defense.
Incheon is expected to build a stable defensive team in the 2021 season by recruiting veteran defender Kim Gwang-seok, who played 409 games (10 goals and 5 assists) in the K-League. Kim Gwang-seok is a multi-resource that can be active not only in the central defense but also in all positions in the defense. Incheon expected, “Kim Gwang-seok, who has excellent coordination and build-up, will hold the center of the Incheon defenders in the new season.”
Kim Gwang-seok, who joined Pohang in 2002, made his first professional stage in 2003. Excluding 2005 and 2006 (1 point in 24 games), when he served in the military, he has been active in Pohang. Over the past 16 years, he has been on the professional stage with Pohang, winning two K-League (2007, 2013), three FA Cup (2008, 2012, 2013), 2009 Asian Champions League (ACL) and 2009 Peace Cup Led to the championship. That’s why he was called Pohang Legend.
Kim Gwang-seok was able to continue his professional life for a long time due to the combination of innate talent and effort. In addition, despite the tendency to press the opponent’s attack roughly, he has an intelligent defense and is a difficult defender to deal with as an attacker. Outside the stadium, it was well known that he took care of his juniors and took the initiative and had a strong trust as a senior.
With the addition of a veteran defender, Incheon has stabilized the defense, built up smoothly, and captured the three rabbits that hold the center of the team. Kim Gwang-seok said, “It is a pity to leave Pohang, where I have been working for a long time. In particular, I am most worried about leaving Pohang fans who supported me most.” “I will try to become a player that quickly blends into the team and contributes.”
