Chungbuk Cheongju Professional Football Club has signed Kim Sun-min ‘Mushimcheon Canté’ for another three years.
The veteran midfielder made his debut in 2011 and has been playing for over 14 years. After playing for Ulsan Hyundai (now Ulsan HD FC), FC Anyang, Daejeon Citizen (now Daejeon Hana Citizen), Daegu FC, Asan Mugunghwa (now Chungnam Asan FC), Seoul Eland FC, and Suwon FC in the K League, Kim joined Chungbuk Cheongju ahead of this season.
Since switching to the Chungbuk Cheongju FC jersey, Kim has played 18 consecutive league games full-time since the sixth round, and has 13 goals and 17 assists in 268 K League games.
It’s no exaggeration to say that Kim is the centerpiece of Chungbuk Cheongju FC. He joined the team late in the season, but despite the adjustment period, he is ranked first in passes and second in minutes played on the team, and he also leads the team in various other statistics. Kim’s persistence and fighting spirit, which puts a lot of pressure on opponents with his high volume of activity every game, is also a big boost for Chungbuk Cheongju FC.
“I came to Cheongju with a lot of hardships, but I feel the most comfortable playing soccer than any other club. All the credit goes to CEO Kim Hyun-joo, who is passionate about soccer, and coach Choi Yoon-gyeom, who is doing a lot for the players. I want to stay with Chungbuk Cheongju FC until my retirement,” he said, 파워볼게임 and after signing the contract, he took an official photo with Chungbuk Provincial Office and Mushimcheon, representing the region.
