Establishment of advanced youth system is the top priority”

– The goal suggested by Park Ji-seong (40), assistant general manager of the Jeonbuk club (hereinafter referred to as the advisor) was clear. With a calm and resolute look, expression, and tone, he expressed his determination to “lead the process of making Jeonbuk become an Asian club football sign.”

Advisor Park said at an inauguration press conference held at Hyundai Motor Studio in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do on the 21st, “After retiring from active duty, I have studied administration steadily. I am happy to finally have the opportunity to use my experience in the K-League. I am looking forward to many things to do with Jeonbuk.”

On the 19th, Jeonbuk appointed Park Ji-sung as an advisor and announced that he will take on the role of advising and suggesting overall team management, including player selection and training, scouting, and training systems and programs. It was a plan to recruit him, who had been through prestigious European clubs such as Manchester United (England) and PSV Eindhoven (Netherlands), to receive the’DNA of European football’. It is also the first step in realizing the blueprint of Jeonbuk to become a world-class soccer club beyond the K-League.

Advisor Park cited’building an advanced youth system’ as a top priority. He said, “The youth sector is connected with the future values ​​of the club. This is the reason why European clubs such as Manchester United and Eindhoven are working hard to run youth teams. “The part that needs to change the perception most in the K-League,” he said.

He also expressed anticipation for reuniting on the K-League stage with an old fellow who made the semifinal myth at the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup. Before this season, commentator Lee Young-pyo (44) was appointed as the representative director of Gangwon FC. Hong Myung-bo (51), executive director of the Korea Football Association, took the Ulsan Hyundai Baton. Kim Nam-il (44), Seongnam FC coach and Seol Ki-hyun (41), Gyeongnam FC coach are two years in the K-League command tower.

Advisor Park said, “I am happy to see the players who shared a very special period of the 2002 World Cup contributing to the development of Korean football in different areas. I don’t know if the term’match-to-match’ is correct because each of them has different locations, but there is no reluctance to use our image in that way. I hope that (Ki) Sung-Yong (32, FC Seoul) and (Lee) Cheong-Yong (33, Ulsan) who have returned to the K-League will be a fire of box office success.”

Jeonbuk CEO Heo Byung-gil said, “Jeonbuk has a European-level clubhouse, and has the administrative power recognized by its own in the K-League. The recruitment of advisor Park is the same as proclaiming a second start for the club’s advancement and globalization. If a person is identified that will help the club’s development in the future, we will always recruit additional people to increase our competitiveness.”
