There is no striker (FW) in normal physical condition. And if Seol Young-woo goes out after the match against Wales, there is no player who sees the right fullback.

Twenty-five players have been selected, but there are many gaps on the list. Jurgen Klinsmann's choice of the Korean national soccer team's coach is bound to raise questions.

The Korea Football Association announced on the 28th the list of 25 men's A team members for the September away friendly match in Europe. The national soccer team will play Wales at Cardiff City Stadium in Wales at 3:45 a.m. on September 8 and Saudi Arabia at 1:30 a.m. on September 13 at St. James' Park in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.

Oh Hyun-kyu (Celtic), Cho Kyu-sung (Mitwillan), and Hwang Ui-jo (Nottingham Forest) were selected as front-line strikers. However, Oh Hyun-kyu suffered a calf injury that required about four to six weeks of recovery around the 9th, and Cho Kyu-sung also left the stadium complaining of thigh pain in the first 20 minutes of the game on the 21st. Hwang Ui-jo has not played any games at all due to competition for the starting lineup at EPL Nottingham Forest.

Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), who can see the striker's position, was also replaced due to an injury during the game over the weekend. As all of the attackers were not normal, Joo Min-kyu (Ulsan Hyundai) and Na Sang-ho (FC Seoul) were expected to be selected, but Klinsman's choice was to pick the existing members as they were.

Of course, Klinsmann said he decided on the national team roster through communication with his team. However, it is unclear whether Oh Hyun-kyu, Cho Kyu-sung, Hwang Ui-jo, and Hwang Hee-chan will be able to play their team matches this weekend due to injuries. Oh Hyun-kyu and Hwang Ui-jo have no sense of play at all. It is unclear whether the striker's condition, the most important position for his soccer, which advocates offensive football, will be able to play in the Wales-Saudi Arabia match.

The right fullback should also be pointed out. Seol Young-woo (Ulsan) and Ahn Hyun-beom (Jeonbuk Hyundai) can be classified as right fullbacks on the national team list. However, Seol Young-woo plans to send coach Hwang Sun-hong to the Asian Games national team if there is no big problem with the A team after Klinsmann plays against Wales.

Lee Ki-je's left fullback, Jung Seung-hyun, Kim Young-kwon, Kim Min-jae, Kim Ji-soo, and Kim Joo-sung are all central defenders. Then, in the end, Klinsmann's plan is to send Kang Sang-woo (Beijing Guoan), who will be selected for the national team for the first time since January last year, as a right fullback or Ahn Hyun-beom, who made a sluggish debut in the A match in June.

However, Kang Sang-woo calmly specializes in the left fullback and plays as a winger in his team Beijing. His right foot is the main foot, but he is basically familiar with the left fullback. Ahn Hyun-beom is also classified as a midfielder in the announcement of the national team list, and he is coolly better than the three-back to the wingback, but the current four-back to the right fullback is not suitable.

If 25 people were selected, it could have been a reasonable choice to pick one more right fullback in preparation for Seol Young-woo's departure.

Coach Klinsmann, who selected as many as 25 players but performed magic that looked empty in the striker and the right fullback position.
