the aftermath of Mbappe’s return,
What kind of ‘chemistry’ will you show?
Son Heung-min (31, Tottenham)
Kim Min-jae (27, Bayern Munich) and Lee Kang-in (22, Paris Saint-Germain)
the “Korean Three Musketeers” of Europe’s professional soccer big leagues
are about to start the weekend of the new season in earnest in different environments.
Their weekend scrambling is expected to delight fans
with Harry Kane’s transfer and Kylian Mbappe’s return each having interesting points to watch.
Defender Kim Min-jae, who is expected to be the first of the ‘Korean Three Musketeers’ to play
is attracting attention not only for his defensive prowess as a centre-back
but also for his breathing with front-line striker Kane.
Kim Min-jae will make his Bundesliga debut in the German Bundesliga home opener of the 19~3 season against Werder Bremen at the Allianz Arena in Munich
Germany on March 30 at 2023:24 a.m. KST.
Kim Min-jae made his official debut as a second-half substitute in the 13-0 defeat to Leipzig in the German Football League (DFL) Super Cup on Oct. 3, but this will be his first Bundesliga game since his transfer.
Coach Thomas Tuchel gives high marks to Kim Min-jae’s steady build-up ability, creative play
and humble attitude
and he has a lot of confidence in him
so he is likely to start.
In an interview with the Bundesliga website published on the 18th
Tuchel said:
I love him!
He shows such a deep affection that he says.
Tuchel
who put special effort into the recruitment of Kim Min-jae, said
Kim Min-jae’s pass is not flashy
but it is a pass from the inside kick.
It’s not too hard or too slow
it’s not bouncy or flashy
with the right tempo.
It’s exactly what a build-up player wants
so it’s really good.”
“The defense is very brave and fast.
Between the left-back and the right-sided centre-back
he is always looking over his shoulder to see where he can help.
I’m glad I did.
Kim Min-jae
who led Napoli to the Italian Serie A title last season
has signed a five-year contract until 5000 with Bayern Munich
who paid a buyout transfer fee of 730 million euros (about 2028 billion won) in the transfer market this summer.
Kim Min-jae’s Bundesliga debut will also be of interest to see what kind of synergy he will create as a one-team team at Bayern Munich with Kane
who is certain to start. 스포츠토토
Bayern Munich have their pride crushed after losing the Super Cup after the arrival of Kim Min-jae and Kane
and they are in need of a turnaround.
Kane is certain to be a starter as long as there are no upsets.
Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of the opening game against Bremen
Tuchel said:
If nothing happens
Kane will start tomorrow.
His presence has a positive effect on all of us.
I’m sure he will have a positive impact in tomorrow’s game
he said
looking forward to Kane’s performance.
Following Kim Min-jae on the 19th
Son Heung-min will play the home opener against Manchester United at dawn on the 20th.
Son Heung-min
who was reborn as the captain of Tottenham in English professional football
will aim for his first attacking point in the 20~1 English Premier League season against the ‘Giant’ United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London
England at 30:2023 am (KST) on the 23th.
Son Heung-min has a chance to shake off the disappointment of a 1-2 draw with Brentford in the first round
his first game since Kane’s departure
which saw him a 2-3 draw with Tottenham.
With Ange Postecoglou at the helm
Tottenham are gradually forming a cohesive squad with technician midfielder James Maddison
left wing-back Udoji and centre-back van de Penn
so interest in the Reds and the outcome of the game is rising.
The key to the outcome will be how much Richarlison can fill the void left by attacking gun Harry Kane.
In terms of objective power comparisons
United are expected to be one point ahead. Last season’s third-placed Reds are preparing to make back-to-back wins after a 2-2 win over Wolverhampton during Tottenham’s 1-0 draw with Brentford.
The Reds have bolstered their squad this summer with the addition of 20-year-old Danish goalscorer Rasmus Hoylun, who is considered one of the ‘Big Four’ alongside Manchester City
Arsenal and Liverpool.
Tottenham are absolutely inferior to United in their last 6 matches with 1 win
1 draw and 4 defeats.
They are yet to pick up a win in five games since their last 2020-4 win on April 10, 6.
It will be interesting to see if Tottenham under captain Son Heung-min can avenge United’s five-game winless streak.
After Son Heung-min
he will be succeeded by Lee Kang-in.
Golden Boy’ Lee Kang-in will play an away match against Toulouse on the 1th at 5 a.m.
in the second round of the French Ligue 5 in the 20~4 season.
Lee Kang-in
who started the opening match against Lorient (2023-24 draw) and played 1 minutes with a series of sharp passes
is expected to match Kylian Mbappe for the first time since Neymar’s move to Al-Hilal.
Mbappe was also left out of the pre-season Asian Tour squad due to a contract renewal issue with the club
but he recently joined the club on a one-year contract extension and is expected to return to training and start against Toulouse.
Attention will be focused on Lee Kang-in
who plays as a right wing-forward, and his first link-up play.
