Bae Joon-ho has recently received hot attention in the summer transfer market with rumors of a transfer to Feyenoord and the English Premier League (EPL). Considering his performance in his first season in Europe, interest is natural. Bae Joon-ho left Daejeon Hana Citizen last summer and entered the European stage wearing a stalk uniform. Bae Joon-ho, who already showed off his talent at the 2023 U-20 World Cup, continued his performance in Daejeon and received Stoke's attention and headed to England.

Bae Jun-ho said at the time he joined "I always wanted to have a chance to play in England. My dream came true"It's just the beginning, and I want to have a long and successful career in Stoke. Since I'm in England, I have to adapt to it on and off the field. I want to adapt as soon as possible and contribute to the team," he said with determination.



The determination immediately led to reality. Bae Joon-ho, who played in rotation at the beginning of the season, jumped to the starting lineup with the trust of coach Stephen Schumacher in the second half of the season. Bae Joon-ho, who started 25 of 38 league games, finished his first season in England with two goals and five assists.

After the end of the season, he was also selected as the fan's player of the year. Stoke said 'Korea's playmaker won Player of the Year over central midfielder Bauter Würrher. Bae Jun-ho is only 20 years old. But I had a great debut season at bet365 (home field). Bae Joon-ho became a big fan after changing his uniform from Daejeon Hana Citizen to Stoke. For eight months, I cheered 'King of Korea' It has become a key player in coach Stephen Schumacher's first-team squad, celebrating Bae Joon-ho's performance award and the player of the year award.

Bae Joon-ho, who also appeared as a model for the Stoke uniform in the next season, raised expectations, but other clubs also paid attention to his performance. Netherlands' prestigious Feyenoord showed interest in recruiting Bae Joon-ho.

1908NL of the Netherlands is ' Bae Jun-ho was fascinated by Feyenoord's interest while playing for Stoke. He can play as an attacking midfielder and winger with his right foot, and Feyenoord is in direct communication with his agency. After drafting a report that included several body checks, thorough analysis and high evaluation, Feyenoord was confident that Bae Jun-ho would be an immediate reinforcement to the first team. A concrete agreement will be reached sooner rather than later.'

He is then signed by Stoke until the summer of 2027, but according to the news, Bae Joon-ho also wants to challenge for the European Champions League at Feyenoord. Feyenoord explained, 'We have decided that Bae Jun-ho is suitable for Brian Friske's formation and tactics.

Feyenoord was a prestigious club participating in the European Champions League (UCL) next season, so more attention was paid to Bae Joon-ho's choice. It was known that the club could pay the highest transfer fee ever.

Some British media outlets reported that Feyenoord is not the only team interested in Bae Jun-ho. The German Bundesliga and Italian Serie A clubs, as well as the three clubs of the English Premier League (EPL), are watching Bae Jun-ho.

Stoke held his ground stubbornly. If an unreliable proposal does not come, he said he would protect Bae Joon-ho. According to the news, Stoke has no plans to sell Bae Joon-ho, and he has no intention of selling unless he receives an unreliable offer. I have confidence that he will join the squad for the next season,' he said, adding that he will demand a considerable investment in transfer fees to persuade him.

However, through this No. 10 allocation, he seems to be willing to reject almost all proposals unless they are really large proposals until next season. It doesn't seem easy for Stoke, who sends a higher position in the championship, to release a player who has been selected as the team's ace for the next season.

With Bae Jun-ho's No. 10 allocation, his future this summer is focused on staying. However, despite the number allocation, it will be necessary to continue watching how the situation will change for the rest of the transfer market.
