Hwang Hee-chan-Wolverhampton Re-signs Super Express Terms… until 2028 + Contract Extension Clause

Fabrizio Romano, a European transfer market expert known for his work at the Guardian, shared exclusive information on his personal SNS account on the 13th (Korea time). “Wolverhampton has already agreed to renew his contract with Hwang Hee-chan. The new contract is due in June 2028. An additional extension clause is included,” he reported.

Wolverhampton gave Hwang Hee-chan exceptional treatment in order to secure him. Romano added, “Hwang Hee-chan will be treated the same as the club’s highest paid players with his new contract. For Wolverhampton, it is a big move with their best player.” 토토

According to Capology, a news outlet specializing in soccer player contracts, Hwang Hee-chan currently earns 1.56 million pounds (2.6 million won) a year. Converting his annual salary to about 30,000 pounds (49.6 million won). Currently, the highest-paid player at Wolverhampton is Pablo Sarabia, who earns about 4.68 million pounds (7.7 billion won). In terms of weekly salary, his annual salary is around 90,000 pounds (about 149 million won), three times that of Hwang Hee-chan.

Judging from Romano’s comment that Hwang Hee-chan will receive a similar salary, it seems that he has signed a high, if not as much, salary increase as Sarabia. The second highest-paid players at Wolverhampton are Nelsson Semedo and Fabio Silva. The two players earn 4.16 million pounds (about 6.9 billion won), slightly lower than Sarabia.

It has not been disclosed exactly how big Hwang Hee-chan’s contract is, but treatment at the level of Semedu and Silva is likely. If he is treated at the level of Semedu and Silva, Hwang Hee-chan will be in the top five with an annual salary at Wolverhampton. He will be certainly recognized as a key player in the team.

Hwang Hee-chan’s current conditions are definitely not a mainstay in the team. His annual salary of 1.56 million pounds is the 16th in the team. Hwang Hee-chan will be included in the top salary list at once as his annual salary has nearly doubled. It is an unconventional treatment for Wolverhampton as well. By presenting good conditions to Hwang Hee-chan, he has made a calculation to keep Hwang Hee-chan in his team until the end.
