In recent times, Coach Park Hang Seo has received attention from many Southeast Asian teams such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore. In this situation, the Chinese press is also afraid that the home team will miss the appointment with the Korean coach.
Sohu newspaper commented: "Coach Park Hang Seo once received a salary of up to 600,000 USD/year in Vietnam. That is a barrier for many Southeast Asian teams. In that context, Chinese fans called on Coach Park Hang Seo to come and help the Chinese U23 team.
The goal of qualifying for the 2024 Olympics is considered a major priority for Chinese football. The Chinese U23 team has had many training trips to improve their skills, but the team still loses more than wins.
Not many people believe in the ability of coach Cheng Yaodong to lead the Chinese U23 team. They are not optimistic about the prospect of their team winning a ticket to the 2024 Olympics.
If the Chinese Football Association quickly appoints Coach Park Hang Seo, it will be a plan that brings many benefits. The Korean coach's coaching talent has been proven. He also has a certain understanding of Asian football.
In addition, the appointment of Coach Park Hang Seo also helps China avoid the prospect of confronting this strategist if he accepts to work in Singapore or Thailand. They are the opponents of the Chinese team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Both Singapore and Thailand lack a coach who understands Chinese football, like Coach Park Hang Seo."
Recently, when answering Osen (Korea), Coach Park Hang Seo talked about the future: "My representative has contacted a number of places. However, everything is still too early. I have not made a final decision. I know that they are still in contact. The result must be based on suitable conditions.
I can only tell you that I will not return to work in Korea. At the moment, I am opening a youth football training class in Vietnam. However, I still plan to try my hand in another country if I have the opportunity."
