Kim Min-soo (18, Girona), who was born in 2006, replaced the Spanish Primera Liga for two consecutive games. The playing time was not long, but it was meaningful that it was used as the coach’s last replacement card when a goal was needed.
Kim Min-soo played for a short time in the second half against Las Palmas in the 11th round of the 2024-25 Spanish Primera Liga at Estadio de Gran Canaria in Las Palmas, Spain on the 27th (Korea time).
Kim was substituted as his team’s third substitute at the end of extra time in the second half when the team was trailing 0-1. During such short playing time, Kim failed to score shots on three balls. Both attempts to pass and dribble failed.
Still, it was meaningful that the last Joker that head coach Mitchell Sanchez actually brought out was Kim Min-soo at a time when the team was trailing. This is because it means that it continues to be included in the coach’s plan in line with the team’s situation where a number of injuries are continuing to occur.
Kim Min-soo was previously listed as a substitute during the La Liga 10th round home game against Real Sociedad on the 20th, and then played as a substitute in the 27th minute of the second half and made a surprise debut in La Liga. It was the eighth time that a Korean player played on the La Liga stage after Lee Chun-soo, Lee Ho-jin, Park Joo-young, Kim Young-kyu, Lee Kang-in, Baek Seung-ho and Ki Sung-yueng.
“Kim Min-soo, who was with us for two pre-season games, is a player with both energy and ability,” Mitchell said after the game. “He can stand on the front or the side. I have high expectations on him as he has both athletic and shooting abilities.” He also hinted at the possibility of playing in weekend games, although it was a short time for him to play, he left the record of playing in two consecutive games while actually playing on the ground.
Kim was mentioned earlier in the day in Spain. “Kim Min-soo is like a ray of light in the dark for Girona,” Spain’s As said. “A flurry of injured players have opened up opportunities for talented Korean players to make their debut in the first division. He is not well known to the public, but he is not as good as Girona fans.” 메이저사이트
“Kim Min-soo is the most highly anticipated player within Girona Youth Academy. In fact, a few months ago, Iker Almena had more expectations, but Kim Min-soo took over the baton as he recently moved to Saudi Arabia,” he added.
Kim Min-soo, born in 2006, who played in the La Liga first division for two consecutive games, is a resource that has drawn attention in the region as he steadily grew up in the Girona youth team after going to Spain as a child like Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain). Earlier, he was evaluated as “Girona’s gem” by local media.
