Will another European striker be born. 'Jangshin Striker'Lee Ho-jae (Pohang Steelers) is attracting European attention.

Multiple officials familiar with the transfer market have recently attracted attention from at least three leagues, including Germany, through Sports Chosun. In particular, in Germany, multiple clubs are showing competitive interest. Of course, it is unlikely that Lee Ho-jae will leave for Europe right now. For practical reasons. The K-League summer transfer market is about a week away. It is not easy for Pohang to send 'core'Lee Ho-jae and find a player to fill the position immediately. Moreover, no specific European conditions have been established for Lee Ho-jae. Nevertheless, attention is also being paid to the possibility of Lee Ho-jae's overseas expansion in addition to the recent K-League sensation of 'European Rush'.

Lee Ho-jae, who was born in 2000, continues the lineage of the K-League's authentic striker. He is tall at 1 meter 93 meters and has good foot skills. Above all, it is growing every season, further raising expectations.

He made his professional debut in 2021 wearing Pohang's uniform. Back then, he received more attention for his role as a footballer. His father is Lee Ki-hyung, former coach of Seongnam FC. Lee Ho-jae grew step by step with his experience in the professional world. He scored eight goals in 38 K-League games last season.

The water has risen properly this season. Lee Ho-jae scored eight goals and five assists in 24 games of 'Hana Bank k League 1 2024'. As of the 24th, Pohang is running at the top of the league.
