South Korean talent signs for our Red Bulls

FC Red Bull Salzburg are to sign South Korean forward Jiho Kim. The 17-year-old will join our Red Bulls from Daejeon Hana Citizen in the summer of 2027 and has signed a long-term contract.

Kim came up through the youth ranks at Daejeon Hana Citizen and made the leap to the professional squad while still a teenager. The 1.87-meter-tall right-footed player is a versatile attacker and can play on both wings as well as at center forward.

The South Korean youth national team player will join Salzburg at the start of next season.
