Meiji Yasuda Seimei J1 League Hokkaido Consadore Sapporo has won the Thai national team MF Spa Chalk Sarachat (23) who belongs to Buriram United of Thai League 1 (Thailand 1st Division), but belongs to Muangthong United. It seems that they are also aiming to acquire Thai national team MF Weerathep Pompan (25). The Thai media “Daily News” reported on the 11th.
Left-handed Weeratep, 182 cm tall, joined Muangthong United in December 2018. At the beginning of the transfer, he was not blessed with the opportunity to participate, but he became a regular at the midfield center last season. He started in 26 out of 30 league games this season, but he was sometimes overtaken by the starting lineup in the inside half position.
Also, when he was first called to the Thai national team at the AFF Suzuki Cup (Southeast Asian Football Championship) held in December last year, he participated in 4 out of 8 games at the AFF Suzuki Cup. He has contributed significantly to the victory of the Thai national team and has also increased his own name recognition.
Regarding the departure of Pompang, the Thai version of the British media “90min” reported in December last year that “J.League executives are proposing to the J.League club to acquire the player,” but at this point it was acquired. The name of the club aiming for was not revealed.
However, according to the report of “My Daily”, it seems that Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo wants to acquire Pompang by rental for half a year. Club executives are likely to meet with Muangthong United in the near future.
Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo released Thailand national team MF Chanathip Songkrasin (28) in January this year due to a complete transfer to Kawasaki Frontale. It was reported that there is a possibility of acquiring players from Southeast Asia during this season in order to continue the marketing strategy of Southeast Asia.
Among them, the acquisition of Spa Choke is officially decided on the 11th of this month. Buriram United officially announced that the transactions between the two clubs include a six-month rental extension option and a purchase option.
