Suwon FC, which is trying to promote K League 1, has confirmed the leaders to lead the team in the 2026 season. Park Geon-ha's first captain's armband will be kicked by midfielder Han Chan-hee.
Suwon FC completed the formation of the captain's team to lead the 2026 season through a press release on the 26th. It was announced that Han Chan-hee was appointed as the captain, goalkeeper Yang Han-bin as the vice captain, striker Willian and midfielder Lee Jae-won were appointed.
Han Chan-hee, who is newly in charge of captaincy, joined the team last summer and has been a key player in the midfield. Having recently renewed his contract and confirmed the strong trust of the club and the team, he will play a leading role in taking the center stage both inside and outside the stadium.
Han Chan-hee said through Suwon FC, "I really want to repay the fans' welcome when I decided to renew my contract with the club," adding, "I will be the captain of the season to achieve promotion this year by gathering the hearts of my fans and colleagues."
The vice-captain team to assist Han Chan-hee is also composed of players with old and new harmony and experience. Veteran goalkeeper Yang Han-bin protects the back as the oldest member of the team. Key striker Willian, who has been living in Korea for eight years, also joined the leadership group. On top of that, Lee Jae-won, who has devoted himself as a housekeeper in the midfield for the past two seasons, will once again serve as vice-captain following last year.
Suwon FC said, "The appointment of the captain is a choice that values balance, stability, and experience on and off the field," adding, "Leaders from various positions will organically lead the team and strengthen team solidarity."
Suwon FC, which has completed the formation of the team leader, has completed the selection of the coaching staff earlier, and is in a full-fledged challenge to promotion.
Suwon FC appointed former Busan I'Park head coach Oh Jang as the head coach to assist coach Park Geon-ha on the 12th. Oh Jang-eun, the head coach, was recognized for his leadership through the second-tier and first-tier coaches when he was at Suwon Samsung, and will play a key role in implementing tactics and training operations with coach Park Geon-ha.
Coaches Cho Dong-gun and Jeon Woo-young will join the field coach to guide the players, and coach Yang Dong-won will be in charge of the goalkeeper part. Physical coach Oh Ji-woo is responsible for managing the physical strength of the players and preventing injuries, and power analyst Yoon Soo-bin is responsible for analyzing data-based tactics.
Coach Park Geon-ha, who took over as the sixth head coach last month, said, "All players will organically become one and play soccer that owns and leads the ball."
