'Seol Ki-hyeon Era' Gyeongnam FC to Face Jeonnam in Season Opener on the 10th
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Sharon] Under the management of coach Seol Gi-hyeon, Gyeongnam FC will make its debut on the 10th at 6:30 PM at Changwon Football Center in a match against Jeonnam Dragons.
Gyeongnam quickly prepared for this season after appointing coach Seol to wash away the pain of last year's relegation. Minimizing the departure of existing players after relegation, they strengthened their squad by signing Hwang Il-su, Baek Seong-dong, Jang Hyuk-jin, Ansel, Park Chang-jun, and re-signing Guilherme Negueba, who played a key role during their runner-up finish in K League 1.
During the delay in the season opener caused by the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), Gyeongnam also upgraded their tactical aspects.
Coach Seol said, "As the opening approaches, I feel both excitement and nervousness. Since this is my first time managing a professional team, I still have a lot to improve, but I will do my best to show entertaining football for the fans," sharing his thoughts on the opening match.
