"I'm proud to see the uniform" Son Park No. 7, Kim Lee Park No. 3-Korean big leaguer honey number history

 Korean players who entered the European big leagues generally received good numbers.

The meaning of the jersey number in football is quite large. You can tell at a glance if you look at the uniform number to see if he is a 'main player' or not. It doesn't match 100%, but generally a good uniform number is given to a player with a solid position. 스포츠토토사이트

Among them, the number 7 means the attacking ace, and the number 3 means the main defender. Korean players who played in the five major European leagues (England, Germany, Spain, France, and Italy) had a lot of connections with No. 7 and No. 3.
