Gue-Sung Cho

Gue-Sung Cho

Gue-Sung Cho attacks space and runs beyond the line, using his aerial presence to threaten the back post. He returns with renewed purpose. Gue-Sung Cho broke in at FC Anyang, netting 14 goals in 2019 and earning a World Cup brace. Gimcheon Sangmu stints saw him become K League 1 top scorer with 17 in 2022. The European move to FC Midtjylland arrived in 2023 for around £2.6m, followed by a Danish title in 2023–24 with 13 goals. An 2024 knee infection sidelined him, then a 2025 comeback. Gue-Sung Cho remains an Advanced Forward who presses high and attacks the back post, using his 188cm frame to pin centre-backs. On match days, Gue-Sung Cho finishes moves with quick shots.
