Son Heung-min's father, Son Woong-jung, general manager of the SON Football Academy, advanced to the Thai stage of his carefully raised student.
Chiang Rai United, a member of Thailand's first division, announced on its official channel on the 12th that it had recruited Lee Seung-won (28). Chiang Rai announced, "Our club has officially recruited Lee Seung-won, a striker from Korea," adding, "Lee Seung-won is the first to challenge Thailand, and he will wear his number 9."
Lee joined the SON Football Academy in 2006 when he was nine years old and was coached by Son for seven years. A former professional player, Son developed a unique training method that emphasizes basic skills by having his own son, Son Heung-min, handle balls four hours a day, and applied it to promising players including Lee Seung-won.
Lee Seung-won, a two-footed attacking midfielder, set foot on the European stage at the age of 16 by joining the youth team as an Austrian Carpenter, and played in lower German leagues such as Jean-Kt Pauli, Roedinghausen, and Lippstadt for eight years from 2016 to last year. In the 2023-2024 season, Legionali, a fourth-division German player, scored two goals and two assists in 30 games for Best.
After his contract with Lippstadt ended in July last year, Lee searched for a new nest for half a year before heading to Thailand. Son reportedly helped him to transfer to the team. Lee made his debut as a starting pitcher just two days after his transfer. He started as a forward-throwing forward in an away game against Buriram United in the 17th round of the 2024-2025 season at Chang Arena in Bangkok, Thailand on Saturday, and spent 52 minutes on the ground until he was replaced by Setasit Suvanasit at the 7th minute in the second half. He dedicated five goals in the first half alone, losing 0-8 to Buriram. Kim Min-hyuk, a former center back for the national team, played full 90 minutes as a center back, supporting his team's scoreless victory. 토토사이트
Chiang Rai defender Lee Jung-moon, who played for Jeju E-Land in Daejeon, was absent on the day. Chiang Rai fell to 14th place due to the loss. In the Thai league, the bottom three teams (14th to 16th) will be demoted to the second division. Recruitment of Lee Seung-won, who has experienced European competition, can be said to be a tactic to overcome lack of goals and stay in the team. Last year, he ambitiously recruited Chinese national team striker Guo Tianyu, but has scored no goals in 10 consecutive games.
