Kim Byung-ji, President of Gangwon, has warned the winger that there will be a backlash but that could simply be setting the scene for the 2.5m euro deal to Celtic to be completed.

It is known that the Gangwon club has turned in a positive direction regarding Yang Hyun-joon’s summer transfer, and has also resolved the resentment with Yang Hyun-joon’s side related to the transfer.

Neither Celtic or the player seem to be keen on that option, rather than lose out on selling a player to Europe it seems that Gangwon have turned to Brazil to bring in a replacement before doing business for the sale of the 21-year-old winger.
