“It’s not that I went to Europe because I was impatient or without thinking about the situation.”
Hyuk-Gyu Kwon is playing for Celtic in Scotland. At the end of July, he left K-League 2 Busan I-Park to join Celtic and begin a new career in soccer, but things are not so easy.온라인바카라 Unlike his teammates, strikers Oh Hyun-gyu and Yang Hyun-jun, he is not taking advantage of the opportunity.
To make matters worse, he was also excluded from the recently announced 2023-24 UEFA Champions League list. The team’s captain, Callum McGregor, is still having a hard time competing for the starting position.
However, Kwon Hyuk-gyu is not discouraged. I thought competition was natural and chose to go to Europe.
Kwon Hyuk-gyu, who met with Myanmar after the third round of the 2024 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U23 Asian Cup preliminary round held at the Changwon Football Center on the 12th, said, “It’s not that I’m impatient because I couldn’t play, but I didn’t leave Europe without thinking about this situation. He went out after thinking a lot. There are a lot of really good players in the same position. “I will overcome this through good competition,” he said emphatically.
He continued, “There are many good players in Korea, but there are players on the team that I can learn a lot from, including team captain Callum McGregor. There is also a lot of humanity. I can’t run right now, but I’m not worried. He expressed his determination, saying, “I will learn a lot, grow, and eventually take over the starting position.”
Unlike Hyuk-Kyu Kwon, Hyun-Jun Yang, who came over through the summer transfer market along with Hyun-Kyu Oh and Hyuk-Kyu Kwon, who have been active at Celtic since last season, is establishing himself at Celtic. For Kwon Hyuk-gyu, the presence of the two players is reassuring.
Hyuk-gyu Kwon said, “I feel supported because there are more Koreans on the team than me. “Actually, I would be lying if I said there was no pressure, but I will do my best so that all three of us can do well and show good sides and good synergy,” he said emphatically.
There is clearly a difference in level between K League 2 and the Scottish League. Kwon Hyuk-gyu also said, “I came to Europe right after playing in K-League 2. “There are definitely some rough spots and the intensity of the pressure,” he said. “But I am proud that my shortcomings seem to be improving little by little.” “I’m looking forward to seeing how much I’ll grow when the season ends, and I see every day as a good opportunity,” he said with a smile.
While playing in Europe, he added strength to Hwang Seon-hong and led the team to the U23 Asian Cup finals.
He said, “We lost to Qatar in the first game, and won the second game 1-0. Fans must have been very disappointed. “Still, it’s good to be able to win the last game by a big score,” he said. “I was distracted when I played the first game. In the third game, I felt good because I was fully acclimatized to the jet lag, and my performance was also good. However, as I am thinking about going back to Europe right away (laughter), I think this is a task I will have to overcome in the future.”
Lastly, “Since I was in Korea, I have been watching and learning from seniors Ki Sung-yong and Jung Woo-young, as well as Rodney and McGregor, who are on the same team. “I will work hard to become a reliable defensive midfielder for Korea and a player who lives up to the expectations of my fans,” he said.
