Daejeon Hana Citizen, a promoted team, recruits striker Thiago from Gyeongnam FC.

A transfer market official said, “Daejeon has completed the recruitment of Thiago. On the 9th, the transfer agreement between the clubs was concluded. After passing the medical test on the 10th, we will officially sign and complete the recruitment.”

Brazilian striker Thiago is 190cm tall and has good air power, physical combat, and goal-making skills. He joined Gyeongnam last year and appeared in 37 games, scoring 19 goals and 3 assists, and finished second in scoring. He also led the team to victory by scoring the winning goal against Bucheon FC 1995 in the K League 2 semi-playoff. 토토

Naturally, Thiago received attention from some K League 1 clubs. He was a player who immediately finished adapting to the K-League with a sense of power, as well as a relatively high salary, but it was mouthwatering.

His most active team is Daejeon. Daejeon succeeded in promotion last year by catching Kim Cheon in the K-League promotion playoffs. We sent Willian through the winter transfer market, and the contract with Kaiser, who was a loan student, also expired. While looking for a striker, Thiago came on the radar, and he was completed by paying a buyout to Gyeongnam.

Thiago also had a strong will to challenge the K-League 1. He wanted to prove his skills on the big stage as he showed enough skills in the second division.

Daejeon has already confirmed and announced the signing of K-League 2 top scorer Yoo Kang-hyun. It has the 1st and 2nd place in scoring that conquered the 2nd division last year at the same time. The combined goals the two players scored in last year’s K-League 2 amount to 39 goals. It is said that there is a difference in power between the 1st and 2nd divisions, but strikers who usually scored a lot in the K-League 2 have shown good performances in the 1st division. This is the background that makes us look forward to the front line of the war.

While Daejeon strengthened the front line, it even completed the complete recruitment of Ju Se-jong, who played a big role as a loanee last year. Currently, Daejeon is conducting recruitment work across each position, including midfielders and foreign defenders. We are continuously reinforcing our power and laying the groundwork for the challenge in the first division.
