FIFA Club World Cup 2020 – News – Lee: My European experience would be a weapon against Bayern

  • Lee Chungyong one of Ulsan Hyundai’s most experienced players
  • The winger starred in Europe and played at two FIFA World Cups
  • Lee: “We can compete with Bayern”

Few South Koreans have enjoyed as long a stay in Europe as Lee Chungyong. The 32-year-old spent 11 years between Bolton Wanders, Crystal Palace and Bochum before joining Ulsan Hyundai last year.

Lee helped the Tigers win the AFC Champions League in December and consequently book a trip to the FIFA Club World Cup Qatar 2020™, which will begin next month. And he believes his experience on the Old Continent will be an asset if Ulsan can secure a dream match-up against the mighty Bayern Munich.

“My experiences in Europe are perhaps the biggest weapon,” the winger told FIFA.com. “They are one of the best clubs in the world. We may not be on the same level as them, but I played in Europe for years and I am pretty sure we can compete against them if we make the best of our strengths.”

Lee has reason…
