An official familiar with the European market said on the 29th that `"Travezonspor offered Hong a considerable amount of salary, and I understand that the player was a little bit affected by it. The Turkiye League also has a lower tax rate than the average Western European country.'
In the middle of this month, Hong Hyun-seok's transfer to Trabzonspor from Turkiye has emerged as a strong possibility. Credible reporters and media from Belgium and Turkiye rushed to report Hong Hyun-seok's transfer.
Rumors spread that Hong Hyun-suk, who has a year left on his contract with Hent, will leave on the condition of a four-year contract with a transfer fee of 4 million euros.
Hong Hyun-seok took the mound himself and asked him to go because he wanted to go when public opinion arose among fans that he was pushed by the agent and went to the Turkiye League at a young age. "The one who asked not to go to the agent type..." he wrote on social media.
It was the de facto Trabzonspor transfer 'self-official'. It was also a clear transfer sign that Hent was excluded from the league game entry on the 19th. Manager Thurr Franken Hent said "Hong Hyun-suk's mind has already left Hent"
However, for some reason, Hong Hyun-seok's official statement that he is about to take a medical test with Trabzonspor did not appear. The Turkiye media 'Cuzay Express' is on the 24th, 'Travejonspor's recruitment of Hong Hyun-seok: Cancellation?There is a problem with the transfer negotiations in the article under the title '. The players and the team added a release clause to the contract and demanded that South Korea pay taxes instead, revealing the existence of an unexpected variable.
Trabzonspor is said to have been in a tight race, demanding 12 million euros for a buyout, and the player's half of that, 6 million euros. The possibility of staying in Hent was also raised as there was no sign that the disagreement would be easily narrowed. One of the options is to spend the remaining year at Hent and try to advance to the big league as an FA next summer.

Hong Hyun-seok, a left-footed attacking midfielder like Lee Kang-in, is from Ulsan HD Youth and has been on overseas stages since 2018, including Unterhatching, Junior Ross and LASK. In 2022, he moved to what is now Hent and scored 16 goals in 97 games. Last year, he participated in the Hangzhou Asian Games and helped South Korea win the gold medal. Hong Hyun-seok was wearing a Hent uniform and playing seven games, including the Cup, this season, with two goals and three assists.
If Hong Hyun-seok confirms his joining of Mainz, he will work with senior Lee Jae-sung, who has a relationship with the national team. It is the birth of a Korean duo in the Bundesliga who will succeed Koo Ja-cheol (currently Jeju) and Ji Dong-won (currently Suwon FC), who worked with Augsburg in the past. Koo Ja-cheol also played with Park Joo-ho (retired) in Mainz. Lee Jae-sung, who is famous for taking good care of his juniors, is not expected to have a big problem in adapting. Marco Richter, who played Mainz No. 10 last season, left on loan to Hamburg, and No. 10 is currently empty. Hong Hyun-seok wore No. 21 in LASK and No. 7 in Hent. Mainz No. 7 is Lee Jae-sung.
The number of Korean players playing in the Bundesliga this season is expected to increase to four, including Kim Min-jae (Bayern Munich) and Jung Woo-young (Unyon Berlin). Jung Woo-young left Stuttgart on a season-long loan to Union on the 27th.
