Meat Willan is preparing to be reborn as a close club in earnest.

Denmark's BOLD reported on the 6th (Korea time) 'Adam Buksa, Um Won-sang, and Mitwillan can bring them back'

BOLD reports on Mitwillan's reinforcement of the offense, saying that "'Mitwillan wants to bring in an aggressive player. Cho has undergone surgery, and it's unclear if he will be fully prepared with the season and the start of European Champions League qualifiers. This adds to the fact that Mitwillan will intensify his attacks. It is reported that Polish striker Adam Buksa is on the recruitment list and Ulsan winger Um Won-sang is also included.

Mitwillan drew great attention in the summer of 2023 by recruiting Cho Kyu-sung, the main striker of the Korean national team, and Lee Han-beom, a promising FC Seoul player. Mitwillan wanted to discover and recruit talented players around the world at the time, and among them, he paid attention to the Korean market and courted Cho Kyu-sung and Lee Han-beom to secure the recruitment.

Mitwillan's choice was a success. Lee Han-beom has not received many opportunities yet, only playing in three official games, but he recently played in the pre-season game of Mitwillan, raising expectations for the next season. Cho Kyu-sung was a better recruit. Even though it was his first season in Europe, Cho Kyu-sung played in 37 official matches and scored 13 goals and four assists. Although the scoring pace fell a little at the end of the season, it was enough to be recognized for its performance by ranking fifth in the league.

Meat Willan, who was recruited as two players, once again turned to the K-League, and the player who paid attention to was Ulsan HD winger Um Won-sang.

Um Won-sang, who first made his name as a former Gwangju FC youth, has been on the K-League stage since his professional debut in Gwangju in 2019, earning the nickname 'Um Sala'. Um Won-sang, who has steadily grown since moving to Ulsan, played with 15 goals and 6 assists in the 2022 season and 4 goals and 6 assists in the 2023 season. This season, he also contributed to Ulsan's team's third consecutive league victory, recording five goals and two assists in 19 games.

Um Won-sang also watched the transfer of his former teammate Seol Young-woo, who recently moved to Tsurvena Zvezda, and said, `Of course, I have greed as a player. If I have a chance, I want to try it, and I think it's most important for me to be able to do that as so many fans support me like (New Year's Day) Young-woo and leave."

If Mitwillan recruits Um Won-sang, a total of three Korean players, including Cho Kyu-sung and Lee Han-beom, can be seen playing as a team in the European league. This could be the third such case after Hyun Young-min, Lee Ho and Kim Dong-jin of Zenit in 2006 and Ji Dong-won of Augsburg in 2015, Koo Ja-cheol, Hong Jung-ho and Celtic in 2015 Oh Hyun-kyu, Kwon Hyuk-kyu and Yang Hyun-jun.
