Fabrizio Romano, an expert in the European soccer transfer market, said on his personal SNS on the 12th (Korea time), `Hwang Hee-chan is still a candidate for recruitment by several clubs in 2025. Wolverhampton reported last summer that it had rejected an offer of 25 million euros (about 37.5 billion won) from Olympique Marseille for Hwang Hee-chan.
Romano added 'Wolverhampton is in a complicated situation under Gary O'Neill this season. As a result, interest in Hwang Hee-chan is still active, predicting the possibility of a winter transfer.

The atmosphere has changed this season. Hwang Hee-chan, who initially rejected the courtship of coach Marseille and Robert Dezerbi in the summer transfer market and chose to stay, immediately moved to the bench with two poor games at the beginning of the season. He also created a scoring opportunity with a sharp cross during the match against Arsenal, but this did not lead to an attacking point and the slump began. From the League Cup match against Burnley, which continued with little performance against Chelsea, manager Gary O'Neill made up the starting list excluding Hwang Hee-chan.
Hwang Hee-chan has rarely been on the rise since he was excluded from the starting lineup. Since then, he has been given several opportunities, but injuries in the national team and poor performance have hampered him. In the British media 'Uncontroversial, Hwang Hee-chan is one of Wolverhampton's worst players this season. There was even an evaluation that 'I didn't see the same threat as last season at all.

Local media in the UK also acknowledged the possibility. Britain's Molineux News reported 'O'Neill's replacement is not a matter of when, but a matter of possibility. Wolverhampton are looking to replace O'Neill, but they know it's important to have a wise managerial appointment. However, O'Neill is not the only uncertain future. Wolverhampton's decline reflects Hwang Hee-chan's sharp decline in form. Hwang Hee-chan was the team's strongest striker last season, and showed a deadly partnership with Matheus Cunha. However, a year later, he has failed to score an offensive point in 11 games, recording the worst performance in his career,' said Hwang Hee-chan.
Then 'Hwang Hee-chan became an unused bench player. Now his future at Wolverhampton has been questioned. Marseille's €21m offer for Hwang Hee-chan was rejected last summer. Hwang Hee-chan will regret not transferring when he had the chance. Unlike 19th-ranked Wolverhampton, Marseille is competing for the championship with Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1. Wolverhampton will receive inquiries about Hwang Hee-chan, according to the news, and he may leave the team in January.

Hwang Hee-chan responded to his refusal to court at the time by "A big decision was needed this summer. De Zerby called me every day. He has also spoken to Wolverhampton manager Gary O'Neill several times about the transfer. I trusted O'Neill. He said I was an important player, which gave me great faith. He also explained to O'Neill why he said, `I'll stay at Wolverhampton and do my best.' However, after the rejection, he had difficulty and decided to consider moving again.
If Hwang Hee-chan is back on the market, it may be possible to recruit a large enough player. Marseille may try again, and there are many English Premier League (EPL) clubs who want Hwang Hee-chan.
Attention is also focusing on what decision Hwang Hee-chan will make in the winter transfer market.
