Jeonbuk Kim Doo-hyun's storm entry, which aims to rebound in the second half of the year, is not over yet. 'Verified Fullback'Kim Tae-hyun (28, Jeonnam) was recruited to answer 'Last Puzzle'
An official from the transfer market said on the 30th "Jeonbuk recruited Kim Tae-hyun from Jeollanam-do. It is a complete transfer form in which transfer fees are incurred. We plan to undergo a medical test as early as today (30th) and make an official announcement for a while." If no abnormalities are found in medical tests, the transfer is expected to be completed. The transfer fee is known to be around 700 million won.
If the recruitment is confirmed, Kim Tae-hyun will be the 7th recruit brought by Jeonbuk this summer. Jeonbuk previously upgraded its power across all positions by recruiting defensive midfielder Han Kook-young, central midfielder Yoo Je-ho, winger Jeon Jin-woo, playmaker Andrigo, center back Kim Ha-joon and all-weather striker Lee Seung-woo. Including midfielder Kim Jin-kyu and goalkeeper Kim Joon-hong, who were discharged from the military on the 15th, nine players were 'inflow' at once. It is a reconstruction that is at the level of metaplastic degeneration.
Side defense was considered Jeonbuk's last puzzle. 'National level' Kim Jin-soo and Kim Tae-hwan are in charge of both sides, but they often exposed problems that are hopelessly penetrated by the opponent's side attacks this season. A change was needed. It was icing on the cake when proven resources that will give fresh impetus to existing resources were added. Jeonbuk has long shown interest in Kim Tae-hyun, who has excelled in Gimcheon, and finally seems to be focusing on recruiting.

Kim Tae-hyun made his professional debut in Ansan in 2018 and joined Jeonnam in 2021. Kim Tae-hyun, who has enjoyed only the K-League 2 stage on the professional stage, entered the K-League 1 for the first time this season with the promotion of Gimcheon. He played a total of 13 games in Gimcheon and scored a Wonder Intermediate-Range Goal against Ulsan and Jeju in May, drawing attention. Kim Tae-hyun also has the advantage of being a multi-defender who can play both fullbacks and center backs.
Kim Tae-hyun, who was discharged from the military on the 15th, was expected to remain in Jeollanam-do this season to help him gain promotion, but the club was unable to hold on to the player's desire to play on a higher stage. Kim Tae-hyun is taking on a new challenge after leaving a considerable transfer fee. Kim Jin-gyu and Kim Jun-hong, who are classmates in the military, are present, so it will not be difficult to adapt. It is expected to make its debut through a home game against Gwangju on the 9th of next month when the All-Star break ends.
Meanwhile, Jeonnam, which is currently in second place in the K League 2, has successfully renewed its contract with ace Valdivia. Valvidia, who joined Jeonnam last year, has played 57 games in the K League 2 so far, scoring 21 goals and 19 assists. It is reported that he offered 'K League 2 highest salary' to hold on to Valvidia, whose contract period is until the end of this year.
