Cho Young-wook (FC Seoul) had a venom.
Cho Young-wook joined Seoul in 2018, and he is already in his eighth year as a professional. Cho Young-wook, who played in 30 league games and scored three goals and two assists from his first season, joined Gimcheon Sangmu in the 2023 season, and had his best season with 13 goals and five assists. He also played in the Hangzhou Asian Games that year, scored the winning goal in the final against Japan, winning a gold medal and making an early discharge.
Cho returned to Seoul last season and was expected to play a pivotal role under Kim Ki-dong. However, Cho had a hard time due to his injury. He showed no bold moves that he had boasted before. As he ranked fourth, his team gained an advantage to qualify for the AFC Champions League, but personally, he left a regret with four goals and four assists.
Cho Young-wook vowed to revive ahead of this season and is sweating in off-season training from Hanoi, Vietnam, to Kagoshima, Japan.
Cho Young-wook, who met in Kagoshima, Japan on the 6th, said, "My physical condition is better than I thought. The opening is coming up soon, so I think I should prepare well. The training intensity was high due to the faster opening. I'm a little worried about the grass. In terms of performance, if the grass is not good, it doesn't come out 100%."
Regarding his 7th year in the professional league, he said, "I think it's going by too fast. Whenever I talked about time, I thought I would always be in my early 20s. When I was with Kang Joo-hyuk and Samuel, I was so tired of my seniors that I just did what they told me to do on the field. But now my friends just shoot me whenever I ask for a pass."
I also looked back on the pain of last season. "I was most sorry about my injury. I prepared well since the winter training when the coach first came here, but I got hurt in the first game and soon after my return. I thought I was doing my best, but I didn't feel well," Cho said.
"There must be many reasons why I am trying to do well or if I am not ready, but I think it is the player's responsibility after all. I am paying more attention this season. Looking at the data, it has gotten a lot better than last year, so I want to play well in this season. I try to stay calm even if I play well in one game, as it is in practice games. I am strengthening my commitment and have a stronger mind," he added.
Seoul has recruited Kim Jin-soo, Moon Sun-min, Jung Seung-won and Lee Do-han in succession this season, and is considered a favorite. "The older guys worked hard to melt into the team. They helped me a lot, so I'm ready to sleep. I can feel the effect of joining the team."
He also said, "I definitely feel the team is united. I am playing while thinking about what kind of plays the team promised and decided to fulfill. The desire to win is stronger than ever. Previously, they advanced to Final A and Acham, but this season they are aiming higher. This time, they really want to do it. Last year, when we played in winter training, we always failed or displayed poor performance, but this time we are different. Our play is coming out. 안전놀이터
Seoul has yet to recruit a foreign striker. It is looking for a variety of players to recruit players that suit Kim's style, but joining the team has been delayed more than expected. As Kim was recruited even before the opening of the season, he is hoping to substitute for the opening game. Naturally, chances are high that Cho Young-wook will start the opening game.
