It will be no surprise if 2023 Stoke City signing is a wanted man this summer: View
Bae Jun-ho has proved to be a bright spot in a torrid campaign for Stoke City
The club are in the relegation zone and are in grave danger of dropping down to the third-tier of English football for the first time since 2002.
Stoke have made an incredible 25 signings across the two transfer windows this season, and the majority of signings have underwhelmed at The bet365 Stadium, leading the club to the predicament that they’re in now.
However, there is one notable exception and that is the club’s South Korean midfielder, Bae Jun-ho.
The 20-year-old attacker was an unknown quantity when he arrived on these shores in the summer from K League side Daejeon Hana Citizen, but he’s become a standout performer for the club and looks set to play a vital role in trying to keep the club in the division.
Bae Jun-ho’s 2023/24 season at Stoke City
When Stoke City announced the signing of the South Korean youth international, the majority of Potters’ supporters would have had no idea who the player was, but he quickly proved his worth and became a regular feature in the squad.
The former K League star has certainly surpassed expectations at the club and was a rare shining light from Ricky Martin’s reign as Sporting Director.
Bae has played 29 games for the club so far this season, 26 of them being in the Championship, with 15 of those being starts.
He scored his first goal for the club in their most recent game against Cardiff City, although it was in vain as they suffered a 2-1 defeat to put them into the Championship bottom three for the first time.
He’s also registered three assists in the Championship this season, and has started to become a fan favourite at The bet365 Stadium thanks to his performances.
