"I've never seen so many wreaths on a football team."
Incheon United, which suffered the first relegation to the second division in the club's history, expressed its willingness to be promoted by taking the helm of coach Yoon Jung-hwan, who won the manager's award in this year's professional soccer K League 1, but there is still a long way to go.
Currently, the internal situation in Incheon is very confusing.
Shim Chan-gu, interim head of Gangwon FC, took responsibility for the relegation of the second division and appointed Yoon Jung-hwan as the new head coach.
However, traffic control was not smooth in the process. With the decision of Choi Young-geun, who took over the baton after Cho Sung-hwan stepped down this year, the club announced the appointment of Yoon. In the process, Choi expressed displeasure with the club's decision.
In addition to the disappointment of the second-division relegation, fans who were angry at the club's unusual handling of the matter sent a condolence flower to Incheon United Football Center and Incheon City Hall to express their anger.
Director Yoon Jung-hwan is also embarrassed.
Director Yoon is in a very difficult situation as interim CEO Shim Chan-gu, who led his recruitment, expressed his resignation.
Coach Yoon said in a press conference on the 26th, "I first contacted former CEO Shim and talked about it in depth, and I felt that he had a lot of sincere thoughts about the team," adding, "I felt sincerity and passion, so I accepted the offer of Incheon coach after a lot of consideration."
However, when asked by reporters, "What moved my heart while talking to CEO Shim Chan-gu?" director Yoon Jung-hwan asked for understanding, "I'm a little at a loss, but my head is a little blank, can I tell you later?"
In the end, coach Yoon Jung-hwan asked for his understanding again, saying, "Can we take a five-minute break?" in an unusual move during the press conference. "I've been a manager for a long time, but I've never been so nervous before," he said with an embarrassing smile.
Coach Yoon Jeong-hwan also seemed to be embarrassed by the recent internal chaos. As a professional, however, he declared a head-on breakthrough.
"I think you must have been very disappointed with the Incheon team. To console them, I think it will depend on how they fight for the next year," he said. "There are many parts of the team that are noisy. The leadership has not been decided yet, and there are some delays in the supply and demand of players."
He added, "There are some parts where the appointment of a coach has set a bad precedent, and I might have thought about it again if I had known it, but in the current situation, the decision is made and how to deal with this part quickly will be important."
Coach Yoon Jeong-hwan said, "I have never seen so many wreaths in a soccer team. I know that I am so hurt by fans. I have no choice but to show you that Incheon has become innovative and transformed because I am good at it. I just think that I should make an effort."
In any case, Yoon Jeong-hwan's Incheon is in urgent need of stabilization. In some cases, preparations for next season have been delayed somewhat amid the chaotic situation. Coach Yoon also did not deny it.
"A lot of time has already passed since the end of the season. I think it's a difficult situation for the team because a lot of time has passed to appoint a coach," he said. "We have no choice but to start from now on, but the key will be whether we can make good use of the existing players and find and recruit the necessary positions in an early time." 토토사이트
"The most urgent thing is that I think this team will work only when the leadership decides quickly. I expect that the front desk will change a lot in innovation. I think I need to actively talk about it," he said.
Meanwhile, Incheon's national team met on Thursday to get to know each other and started its first training session in the afternoon. The team will go on a winter training trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand on January 2 next year for its new season.
