Suwon FC will be in even more trouble if it fails to find a clear replacement for Andersson.
Suwon FC was defeated by Jeju SK 0-1 in the 16th round of "Hana Bank K League 1 2025" held at Suwon Stadium at 7:30 p.m. on the 27th. As a result, Suwon FC fell to 11th place with an unbeaten streak in three games, and Jeju jumped to 10th place with a win in seven games.
Suwon FC, which had fallen to the bottom after the season's opening, recently saw a glimpse of its hope. It defeated Daejeon Hana Citizen, which had been in the lead, 3-0, and made a valuable 1-1 draw despite injuries to key players such as Sabak and Lee Ji-sol away from FC Seoul. In the absence of veteran players such as Ji Dong-won, Yoon Bit-garam, and Lee Yong due to injury, the team sought a rebound by climbing to the 10th place.
"Ace" Andersson was at the center of his performance. Andersson, who was the center of Suwon FC's surprising leap to the top of the list last season, won the K-League 1 title of assistance and was also nominated as three MVP candidates. However, the team is nearing a breakup this season. After experiencing friction with the team during the winter training, Andersson fortunately entered the season by dramatically resolving the conflict. It has a profound impact on Suwon FC's performance by scoring five goals and four assists, but it is connected to many clubs in the K League 1 ahead of the transfer market period.

Coach Kim Eun-joong was also most concerned about this. Before the match began, Kim said, "My biggest concern is Andersson's future. Nothing has been decided yet, but he is the player we depend on the most, and it is not easy to replace him."
"Still, I am preparing well wisely. Andersson is also working hard without showing off, so I am very grateful for that," he said. When asked if Andersson had any specific suggestions, he said, "I know he has. There are many parts that need to be matched well. Maybe it will take some time. I'm sure there are teams that are interested in it."
The team needed to win the match between the lower-ranked teams, but Suwon FC couldn't smile. In the 35th minute of the first half, Lee Chol-ro, who received Lee Chang-min's elaborate pass from a corner kick, gave the lead by donating the first goal. After the start of the second half, he tried to take the lead by sending a wraparound, but was pushed back by Jeju's offensive. Andersson was not enough to make a breakthrough alone. In the 5th minute of the second half, goalkeeper Ahn Jun-su was lucky to save Jeju's penalty chance, but in the end, he failed to catch up with the difference and lost 0-1.

After the game, coach Kim Eun-joong was asked again about Andersson's departure. On whether the club promised a clear solution, he said, "It's a difference in position. As you can see, our squad is too weak. I want to bring in a player I need rather than receiving a lot of transfer fees, but reinforcing players is not easy in the summer transfer market. In particular, it is not easy to find resources that can replace Andersson. I am also curious about how this will proceed, and I think it is an important issue."
In fact, it is not easy to bring in the players that coach Kim Eun-joong wants. "Such players are out of our control. Realistically, we cannot accept players that we want. There are too many complicated things. There are some parts that are difficult to say individually. Still, we should finish the game well," Kim sighed.
스포츠토토 It is a time when Suwon FC's concerns deepen. Despite the difficult situation to expect high performance in reality, he endured the first half due to coach Kim Eun-joong's leadership and the revival of foreign players, but faced the same variable of Andersson's departure as the main body of Suwon FC. An official from Suwon FC could not hide his bitterness, saying, "Anderson's birthday is in July, but I don't know if the team will be able to celebrate his birthday before he leaves." If the Andersson gap is not resolved, there is a high possibility that the team will face a deeper crisis in the second half of the year.
