Jeonbuk announced on the 6th that it has recruited Kompanyo as an FA. He is a tall striker of 1m95 and has the ability to head and can use both feet. Jeonbuk said it chose Kompanyo as a player who can strengthen scoring ability and serve as a finisher for the team in the front line, which was considered the team's weakness last season.
The connection between Jeonbuk and Kompanyo appeared late last month.
Italian transfer market expert Nicolos Skira claimed on his SNS on the 23rd of last month (Korea time) that `Gompaño will sign a contract with Jeonbuk as an FA by December.'
Kompanyo scored 19 goals and one assist in 29 games at Tianjin Jinmenhu in the Chinese Super League last season. Ahead of this season, he had left China and was looking for a bird's nest.
In 2016, kompagno made his debut in Italian Serie D (Fourth Division) Finneolo. Compagno, who rose to prominence after moving to San Marino's Trefior, was selected on the Italian national team's preliminary list when he scored 16 goals in 32 games for Steaua in 2022 after playing for Criova in Romania's second division in 2020.
Jeonbuk's offense is also expected to gain momentum with the addition of Kompanyo, who has excellent control of provision and goal-making ability.
Jeonbuk was preoccupied with reinforcement after announcing the appointment of Gus Foyet in December last year. Kim Young-bin was recruited from the defense line, but most of them analyzed that the offense was relatively weak. There is Lee Seung-woo who scored 12 goals last year, but it is true that foreign players such as Thiago were somewhat disappointed. There was a view that it was necessary to reinforce foreign strikers with destructive power at the front line. As head coach Foye put forward 'Revival of Dakgong' in his inauguration, it is expected that he will be able to achieve his goal only when he reinforces heavily.
Coach Foyet has enjoyed strategies to target opponents based on ball possession and build-up. maintain proper shape in one's camp It was like looking for an opportunity with a counterattack. Most teams that have gone through have used 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 formation. In both formations, the ability of the front-line central striker is considered important. If Kompanyo, who gained abundant experience and produced results, joins the team, coach Foyet's soccer will be more powerful.
"I'm excited and excited to be able to challenge myself on a new stage," Kompanyo said. As we came to the best team in the K League, we will do our best to meet the fans' expectations"Since the opening game is just around the corner, I'll try to improve my condition as soon as possible and give the best performance with my teammates."
