Stoke City ace attracting transfer interest ahead of January
Reporter Fraser Fletcher on X claims that Stoke City playmaker Bae Jun-ho is drawing “serious interest” ahead of the January transfer window.
Due to interest from other teams, Stoke City may have difficulty holding onto the attacking midfield player this winter. In August 2023, he signed a four-year contract with the Championship team that would last until June 2027.
The 21-year-old South Korean international Jun-ho has already earned six caps. Twenty of his 62 appearances for the Potters this season have been in all competitions, and he has contributed two goals and an outstanding eleven assists.
Other teams are “weighing” their options for him, according to journalist Fletcher’s most recent report on his future at the Bet365 Stadium on X. At this time, the identities of the teams that are admirers are unknown.
Stoke City man wanted
They are under no need to cash in on him anytime soon because he still has a few years remaining on his contract. If they are considering letting him go, they can wait for the perfect offer to come in.
“This is a dream come true because I have always wanted to have the opportunity to play in England,” he said on the Potters’ website after relocating there last year. I plan to have a long and prosperous career at Stoke City, and this is just the beginning.
“I need to adjust to moving to England, both on and off the pitch, but I plan to do so as soon as possible and contribute to the team’s success with my performances.”
Although he could score more goals, Jun-ho has recently adapted well to life in England. He is a creative player who provides a respectable number of assists to his teammates.
Before joining Stoke City, the Daegu native played for Daejeon Hana Citizen. He participated in 28 K-League games for the team, scoring three goals after making his debut in their first squad as a youth.
