Jang Ho-ik, the new captain of Busan I-Park, said he was very honored to take the captain's post upon transfer.

Busan, where Jang Ho-ik belongs, has returned home after completing off-season training for the 2025 season in Chiang Mai, Thailand until February 3 and is currently starting the second training at the Busan clubhouse before the season opens. Busan manager Cho Sung-hwan showed great trust by entrusting Jang Ho-ik, who moved to Busan after his contract expired from Suwon Samsung after the end of the 2024 season.

Jang Ho-ik said in a meeting at Chiang Mai's training camp, "It's a great honor to be in Busan's prestigious team, and I feel more responsible to be the captain." "Coach Cho Sung-hwan and head coach Oh Jang are emphasizing communication. I think it influenced my appointment as captain," he said. "I asked Yang Hyung-mo of Suwon Samsung for advice, and he said, 'All you have to do is do well. That's why I thought I should do really well."

In addition, he expressed his will to do his best in the given position, saying, "I want to hear that the Busan captain is really working hard."

Jang Ho-ik was very satisfied with the atmosphere of the team. "Young players have strong will. Our teamwork is getting stronger as senior players including Koo Sang-min, Lee Seung-ki and Kim Sang-won are leading the team by example," Jang said. "All of our players are thoroughly preparing and are very eager. This year, all of our players will become one and produce the result of promotion. If you join us, it will give us even more strength."

He also expressed his desire to play well personally. Jang Ho-ik said, "If you are a soccer player, it is natural to play a game, but you didn't get many chances last season. It was because I didn't do well," and added, "My goal is to rebound this year. It is my 10th year in the professional league, but I am training in the first year. I am very happy and excited when I come to Busan. I am waiting for the league to open as soon as possible." 메이저사이트

Finally, Jang Ho-ik also expressed his personal wish, "I want to work hard and produce good results and be invited to the K-League Awards after the end of the season and be selected as the Best Eleven." Jang Ho-ik showed strong motivation, saying, "I wanted to be selected before, but it has never been done. This year, I will play more earnestly toward my goal as the captain's responsibility has been added."
