Daegu FC, which is seeking promotion from K League 2 this year due to the pain of relegation to the bottom of the K League 1 last season, confirmed and announced the team's ranking number for the 2026 season.
Daegu released its uniform number for the 2026 season on the 3rd. Many of the team's main players last season maintained their existing numbers.
Sejingya (No. 11), "King of Daegu," Edgar (No. 9), Hwang Jae-won (No. 2), Kim Kang-san (No. 20), and Han Tae-hee (No. 31) received familiar numbers.
Some players are entering the season with a new mindset by replacing their jersey numbers. Giovanni, who wore No. 5 last season, changed his number to No. 7, symbolizing his aggressive image, signaling an intense performance. Park Dae-hoon will also change his jersey number from No. 19 to No. 80 and compete for the starting lineup.
The transfer players who will wear Daegu uniforms this season also chose their own numbers. Veteran midfielder Han Kook-young, who represents the K-League, wore No. 8 symbolizing the commander of the midfield. Park In-hyuk chose No. 99, which means intense energy, while Kim Dae-woo and Hwang In-taek wore No. 25 and No. 26, respectively, and were ready to melt into the team.
Ryu Jae-moon, who has been receiving high expectations from fans due to his return to Daegu, chose No. 29 again, which he used to wear when he was in Daegu. Number 29 has a special meaning for Ryu Jae-moon. Ryu Jae-moon has regarded No. 29 as the same number as his symbol, as he has never worn another number since his professional debut.
Through the club, Ryu Jae-moon said, "I want to continue the passion and memories of the past," adding, "I will show Daegu-like soccer again in front of fans."
After confirming the team's allocation, Daegu will play the opening game of Hana Bank's K League 2022 2026 against Hwaseong FC at 2 p.m. on March 1 at Daegu iM Bank PARK, its home stadium.
