Lee Seung-woo, 20 years old (Korea)
At the age of 20, Lee Seung-woo is playing for Hellas Verona in Serie A. The list of Korean players participating in the 2018 World Cup for Lee Seung-woo has received mixed reactions from experts. They said that Lee Seung-wo rarely plays with Korean youth teams, and the national team should not risk bringing Lee to Russia in the final list of 23 players.
However, despite Korean experts and former players' efforts, coach Shin Tae-yong still called Haransee Lee Seung-woo for the 2018 World Cup. This will be an excellent opportunity for this bright young player to return to a career worthy of his birth potential.
