In addition to his footballing abilities, ‘Woo’ has always impressed us with his commitment and diligence in training. After spending last season on loan at Union Berlin, we’ve now reached an agreement with him and the Union management over a permanent transfer. We’d like to thank ‘Woo’ for his commitment in the VfB shirt and wish him all the best for the future.”
