'Supernova from the K League' Yang Min-hyuk (19, Queens Park Rangers) seems to be adjusting well to unfamiliar environments.
Yang Min-hyuk shared a photo of his shoulder-to-shoulder with teammate Alfiroid (22) on his personal SNS on the 6th (Korea time). Lloyds scooped up a photo he posted on his Instagram story. Yang Min-hyuk showed his affection for his teammate by attaching blue and white hearts, the symbol colors of QPR, along with the words "You're the best."
Yang Min-hyuk signed a half-season lease with England's second-division club QPR on the 30th of last month to gain experience playing for his original team Tottenham. It may be a confusing situation for Yang Min-hyuk, who has been constantly trying to adapt to Tottenham for a month, but he is going through it well.
Yang Min-hyuk made his European debut against Millwall on the 2nd. In the 30th round of the Championship at the Millwall home stadium, Duden, he was included in the replacement list and replaced by Ilias Chair in the 31st minute of the second half, playing for about 14 minutes. The team lost 1-2, but they made a strong impression on QPR fans with their performance of taking away the ball and shooting boldly.

Three days later, on the 5th, he took the opportunity again. In the 31st round of the league against Blackburn at Loftus Road, QPR's home stadium, he replaced Paul Smith in the 21st minute of the second half. Yang Min-hyuk, who was put in alongside Lloyd at a 1-1 tight point, contributed to the team's victory. Jack Coleback scored the winning goal in the 31st minute of the second half to win 2-1. Yang Min-hyuk's first victory in Europe.
Yang Min-hyuk said, "I'm very happy to win my first victory since my debut at QPR. All that's left is to go up now."
Yang Min-hyuk gave a gift to his teammate, and a video of him giving a nutmeg to Koki Saito, a Japanese midfielder on the same team, drew attention among fans. Efforts to get closer to colleagues are essential virtues for newcomers from Europe.
Yang Min-hyuk, who is gradually increasing his playing time, aims to make his first start and debut goal on the European stage through an away game in the 32nd round of the league against Coventry on the 12th.
Meanwhile, Tottenham seems to have planned to use Yang Min-hyuk as the main member of the first team next season. "Leasing is a very important step in the growth of players," Tottenham technical director Johan Lange said in an interview with the club on the 5th. "More than 80% of the players who made their EPL debut have grown through leasing. Among the players who played a key role in our club, he also went on loan." Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) is a prime example.
"For Yang Min-hyuk, Rankshire and others, securing a lot of playing time in the best environment is important for their careers," Lange said. "They will come back in the summer and compete in the preseason."
Tottenham manager Engie Postecoglou mentioned Matistel, a recruit in the winter transfer market, and Yang Min-hyuk, who left on loan, at a pre-press conference for the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final against Liverpool on the 7th. "One (Martistel) played one and a half seasons in the German Bundesliga. On the other hand, Yang Min-hyuk is from the K-League."
Although Postecoglou said he did not respect the K-League, he had a history of mentioning the difference in levels between the K-League and the EPL. The reason for sending Yang Min-hyuk on loan and recruiting Tel of the same position for a large rent (10 million euros) is looking for in 'From'. He said "The expectations for Telle are also different"
