Don’t look for the old “Hee-chan”… The EPL is also “frightened” by Hwang Hee-chan, who has changed dramatically after “10 goals in 19 games.”

It is not Hwang Hee-chan (27, Wolverhampton). The English Premier League has improved to the point where it sheds light on him.

On the 29th, the EPL secretariat highlighted Hwang Hee-chan’s “scoring pace” this season on its official social media account.

The secretariat has compared Hwang Hee-chan’s records with this season’s past two seasons. Hwang Hee-chan scored eight goals in 57 games in the last 2021-2022 and 2022-2023, while he scored 10 goals in 19 games in the 2023-2024 seasons. 토토사이트

He is in full swing in his third year in the EPL.

Hwang Hee-chan, who left RB Leipzig on loan during the 2021-2022 season and moved to Wolverhampton, fully transferred in January 2022.

Hwang Hee-chan, who seemed to be melting into the team by scoring consecutive goals right after the transfer, suffered from frequent injuries and lost his position over time. Ahead of the 2022-2023 season, there were rumors of a transfer with a number of clubs, including Leeds United.

Hwang Hee-chan, however, is enjoying a turnaround time this season. He has helped Wolverhampton, who was not far away from the “relegation zone,” settle for 11th place in the league by cutting into the opponent team’s net every day.

Hwang Hee-chan, who scored his first goal of the season against Brighton and Hove Albion on August 14, also shook the net against Crystal Palace on September 3. He also scored in the next round against Liverpool. However, all three goals did not lead to his team’s victory, and some even said, “If Hwang Hee-chan scores, strangely Wolverhampton will lose.”

But this was just a coincidence.

After catching his breath in the match against Luton, Hwang Hee-chan met with Manchester City on Sept. 30 and scored another goal. His team won 2-1. He instantly rose to become the best jewel in Wolverhampton.

Even after that, his toes couldn’t rest. Hwang quickly upped his scoring position. He also scored one goal each against Aston Villa, Newcastle, Fulham and Burnley, and scored 10 goals in the match against Brentford on July 28.

In the match against Brentford, Wolverhampton won 4-1, enabling Hwang to smile even more brightly. In addition, Hwang Hee-chan, who scored his ninth and 10th goals in the league, is the only player in the league to rank sixth. He is just one goal behind his teammate Son Heung-min (4th, 11th goals), and four goals behind Manchester City’s leading scorer Erling Holan (14 goals).

What’s surprising is that Hwang Hee-chan’s total number of shots on goal this season is 11. He hit 11 shots on goal and scored 10 times.

Prior to the EPL secretariat, Wolverhampton first recognized Hwang Hee-chan’s performance and even repaid it.

Hwang Hee-chan renewed his contract with his team Wolverhampton on the 22nd. The contract period is until 2028. A one-year extension option was also included.

Britain’s “Molynew News,” which reports on Wolverhampton on the 13th, quoted Fabrizio Romano, who is well-versed in the European transfer market, as saying, “The current Wolverhampton’s highest weekly player is Pablo Sarabia. He is known to receive 90,000 pounds (about 147 million won). Hwang Hee-chan will also be treated at the highest level in the team.”

Hwang Hee-chan is known to receive 30,000 pounds (about 49 million won) of weekly salary before renewing his contract, and if he signed a contract at the highest level in the team, his weekly salary would have tripled.

Hwang Hee-chan said, “I will not be satisfied with the new contract. Sometimes I talk about ‘big ambition’ with my players. I feel a responsibility to bring more victories. I am ready to fight for my team. I don’t want to stop here. I want to take it to the highest level possible.”
