Suwon Samsung is close to recruiting new foreigners.

An official from the transfer market said on the 5th that `'Brazilian Amazonas winger Matheus Seraphim (27) is about to join K League 2 club Suwon. We understand that we have completed the transfer process, and only left the announcement to be made.'" Seraphim is known to have already entered the country.

Brazil's largest soccer media outlet, 'O Globo', said in an article on Seraphim's transfer to Suwon on the 4th that 'Seraphim scored six goals, the most in his team, on loan from Brazil's second division Amazonas this year, and scored two assists' and highlighted his recent performance, saying, 'Amazonas won the second division, and Seraphim contributed 18 points out of 52 points for his team.




"Seraphim scored the winning goal on November 5 last year to lead the team to a 1-0 victory against the American MG, the last game he played in an Amazonas uniform," he said.

Seraphim made his professional debut for guarani in 2017 and played for Oliveira, Alberta, Primavera, Uniang Barbarense, Monte Azul, Portogesa, Uniang Souzano, Retro and Sangose.

Seraphim, who played for Portugal's Olivierrense and Alberta in the past, decided to go overseas for the second time in his personal career. This is my first time going into Asia.




Suwon, led by head coach Byun Sung-hwan, recruited a large number of offensive resources in the transfer market this winter, including striker Ilyuchenko and multi-striker Kim Ji-hyun .

On top of that, a right-footed winger who plays on the left side is the opposite-footed winger, and Seraphim, who has a destructive breakthrough ability, has been added to the offense with various options. It can build a foreign triangular formation leading to Seraphim-Ilyuchenko-Silva, and can operate an attack quartet, including Kim Ji-hyun or Kim Hyun.

Suwon scored just 46 goals last season, its seventh overall in the K-League. He failed to advance to the semi-playoff in sixth place in the final round. This is why they are eager to recruit strikers in the transfer market this winter. Kim Joo-chan will join the Gimcheon Sangmu, and Son Seok-yong will leave for Busan.




Suwon convened at the Hwaseong clubhouse on the 2nd and entered the pre-season in earnest. The first winter training session will be held in Bangkok, Thailand for 20 days from the 8th to the 28th, and then the final quenching will begin in the South Sea from the 30th to the 13th of next month.
