[OSEN=서정환 기자] The British media made an embarrassing mistake by labeling Kim Min-jae (27, Naples) as a Japanese player.
The British sports media ‘Sports Mall’ mentioned Kim Min-jae’s name, saying, “Man Utd is recommending five players to fill the void of Harry Maguire.”
However, the media said, “Kim Min-jae showed a strong form in Napoli, scoring 2 goals and 1 assist in 31 games. This Japanese national team player scored 2 goals and 1 assist in 23 A-matches.” He mistook Kim Min-jae for a Japanese player.
No matter how difficult it is to distinguish an Asian player from the West, seeing Kim Min-jae as a Japanese player raises doubts regarding his professionalism. Japan national team defender Takehiro Tomiyasu is playing for Arsenal, but there are not many Asian defenders on the European stage yet.
‘Sports Mall’ said, “Man Utd is considering paying the buyout fee to recruit Kim Min-jae. The problem is that United also want Minjae Kim’s teammate Victor Osimen. Whether or not Kim Min-jae joins Manchester United depends on his plans for Osimen.” / [email protected]
