Former Korean national soccer team coach Dick Advocaat highly recommended his former student to go to the K-League. Quiraso's national striker, advised by Advocaat, wore a Paju Frontier FC uniform to participate in the K League 2 in the 2026 season.

The Paju club said in a press release on the 8th that it has recruited striker Jafar Arias (30), a former member of the Quiraso national team, as the team's No. 1 foreign player.

Arias introduced his relationship with Advocaat through his feelings about joining the team. Advocaat, who is currently in charge of the Curiaso national team, instilled confidence in Arias about his trip to Korea.

Through the club, Arias said, "Coach Advocaat emphasized that the K-League is a high-quality league," adding, "He encouraged me that my performance in Paju will be a basic condition for joining the 2026 FIFA North-China World Cup."

Arias then said, "I will show the best performance on the K-League stage this year. I will score a lot of goals to promote Paju to the first division," he said.

Arias, a 193 centimeter tall striker, is a veteran who has scored 84 goals and 27 assists in a total of 312 matches on the European stage, including Helmont Sport in the second division of the Netherlands and HB Koege in the second division of Denmark. He also proved his competitiveness on the international stage by playing 13 A matches for the Quiraso national team. It is evaluated that it has strengths not only in its ability to control the right to provide using its tall height, but also in linked play.

"It's a typical target-type striker reminiscent of Lumelu Lukaku we've been looking for," Paju General Manager Hwang storage said. "We expect it to play a key role in the team's attack development as it has overwhelming right to provide and link capabilities."
