Veteran Wanderson (37) of professional soccer club Pohang Steelers became the 38th player in K League 1 history to join the "30-30 Club."

Pohang announced on the 15th that "Wanderson assisted Jeong Han-min's goal in a match against Gwangju FC held at Gwangju World Cup Stadium on the 11th, achieving 30 goals and 30 assists (hereinafter referred to as 30-30) in his K League 1 career."

Wanderson has recently been setting meaningful records one after another. On the 4th, during an away match against FC Anyang, he reached 20 goals and 20 assists while playing for Pohang. He then added attacking points in two consecutive matches, establishing another milestone with 30 goals and 30 assists in his K League 1 career.

Wanderson is the 38th player in K League 1 history to achieve 30-30. Within Pohang's club history, he is the fifth to do so, and among foreign players, he is the second after Raden.

Pohang stated that "Wanderson, who is in his seventh season with the club, has carved his name into Pohang and K League history through consistent performances."

Through the club, Wanderson shared, "I was unable to play for about a year due to injury and surgery, and it was a difficult time until I returned. I am grateful just to be able to step onto the field again, but I am even happier to have achieved meaningful records such as 20-20 with Pohang and 30-30 in K League 1 since my return."

He added, "I would like to thank the club, teammates, and fans who supported me."

Meanwhile, Pohang will face Jeju SK in an away match on the 18th.
