FC Seoul has a proven center back Lee Do-han (31).

Seoul announced on the 5th that it had recruited Lee Do-han on his departure for Hanoi, Vietnam, for the first winter training camp. Lee Do-han, who played in Busan until last year, released an official photo of his concept arriving at Seoul Station on a high-speed train from Busan.

Lee Do-han is Seoul's fourth recruit this winter after national side defender Kim Jin-soo, striker Moon Sun-min and midfielder Jung Seung-won. The club succeeded in strengthening its defense by recruiting experienced veteran Lee Han-do, who played more than 200 games in the K-League. He explained that the combative 'exceeded the limit' with the addition of Lee Han-do, he added weight to the central defense and achieved a balanced power reinforcement'




Regarding this limit, 'He is a player who has strengths in build-ups with good footfall and pass ability to connect to the front. He also has an intelligent defense that blocks opponents' attacks with excellent speed, blocks the opponent's path in advance, and has been evaluated as a stable defender essential to the team. 'We expect Lee to be the right person to serve as a bridge between the old and new harmony within the team as he has excellent loyalty and struggle for the team and excellent leadership to serve as the captain of the previous team.'

Lee Do-do, who made his professional debut in 2016 and played in Gwangju, Suwon, and Busan, Jeonbuk, said, `Honestly, I still can't believe that the Seoul World Cup Stadium will be my home stadium. I chose Seoul because I liked the vision of the club representing the K-League and wanted to be coached by Kim Ki-dong"The central defenders in Seoul are so good that they have the goal of putting them together well and making the least number of runs." I'm a little scared because I heard that off-season training will be very difficult, but I'll come back safely without any injuries and show you a good performance in the season" He expressed his feelings about joining the team.

Lee Han-do, who played in 34 K League 23 games in Busan's uniform last season, is said to have expressed his desire to try again in the first division ahead of the new season. I met my colleagues Choi Joon in Busan and Jeong Seung-won in Suwon again in Seoul. Along with Kim Joo-sung and Yazan, who played as Seoul's main center back duo in the second half of last season, he will be responsible for Seoul's backdoor this year. Lee immediately joined the Seoul squad and boarded a flight to Hanoi.




Coach Kim Ki-dong said in a media day held at Guri GS Champions Park on the 3rd that `If last year when I first took office was exciting, I will start preparing for the season with anticipation this year. I'll try to get to a higher position." Seoul is expected to close the transfer market by recruiting a foreign striker who will fill the vacancy of Lee Yu-chenko (Suwon), who left for the FA.
